[QUOTE="Anon Adderlan, post: 9453860, member: 53053"] I wonder how many during the last downsizing have or had #Hasbro stock. There's also something to be said for conducting yourself in a professional manner. Easy to say when you're also in the position to choose how everyone [I]else[/I] must communicate, and able to give advice whether anyone wants it or not. Even if the shareholders agreed to this it would cost more than it's worth. These business entities are neither equal nor interchangeable without massive restructuring. Agreed, and I dearly wish someone had taken the beast to court over it and set a precedent rather than creating a diaspora of new licenses. The OGL itself is under CC, so such modifications are legally trivial. Also Open Source licenses are a contract between content creators, and not 'owned' in a way which enables a third party whose content is [I]not[/I] involved to invalidate it, even if they wrote it. Which ones? When it comes to leisure products, yes. No, but to be fair this thread involves a fairly negative aspect of corporations. It's never been that simple, and presenting it as such isn't helpful. Wait what? Maybe they weren't directly contacted, but the folks fired could do worse than apply for this job, as the worst that could happen is they simply aren't rehired. It's amazing how often this sort of thing happens. So are lines of code or words per page. Problem is these are among the few things which [I]can[/I] be measured. [/QUOTE]
