could the SteerCo please pronounce about the direction it will take on this
topic? is there an author who did explicitly disagree to the CA or are we just
talk about people you couldn't trace back? I for example tried to contact
Steffen and Ronald Scott Moody several times but never got reply. IMHO some
legal advice how ldraw.org should act in this case would be helpful.
BTW there is still Peter Watts on the list of authors who have not yet affirmed
the CA:
http://www.ldraw.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=356
but I know for sure that he has agreed in July after I had contacted him through
fbtb.net. is the list up to date?
bye, w.

| (...) No explicit disagrements as far as I know, just non-responders. Peter Watts (FrozenPea) has not sent an affirmation to the address on the Parts Tracker home page. I am taking the wider question up with the rest of the SteerCo. Chris (18 years ago, 29-Dec-05, to lugnet.cad)
