"The right to create derivative works of the Work"

Does that mean altering the works (in this case: editing
my dat files and make updates on them) without trying to
contact me first?

Among other things, yes.

And that's a good thing.  Come on now.  The whole ldraw library is a
derivative work and we've already lost contact with the original
author, and many subsequent part authors, but they still get credit
for a job well done.  Good work!  Keep it up!

Have fun,

he simply lies down and lets things happen to him."  -- George Orwell
