No, DM is right; when it suits him he can claim ownership, but when we had done that aaaaages ago he went mental claiming that once something is on the internet then it's free for anyone :roll: Or something along those lines.

I'm all for unification, but all idea of ownership need to go out of the window IMO

I believe that it is still a moral obligation to ask for permission to alter a creative work when in doubt about permissions and also important to give credit to the creator(s). Stock IL-2 flight models are off limits, of course.

I quite agree, but considering the UP guys haven't been doing that (as far as I've been told anyway) then for unification it's probably easier to just drop ownership. In a perfect world, we'd be able to share our mods equally in the community without limiting them to certain sites or people. If we're all on the same song-sheet then things are easier.
