But it's the fact that the whole Pro Flight Simulator is just big lies at all. Starting from authors name, the so said branch with improvements they made to fgfs, the bug fixes they made, the 1000 daily copies they sell daily and the PFS developers that are so said working on the fgfs code and sceneries... The way how they hidden the GPL project behind it and steal stuff on the way to promote the PFS packaging... In fact, there's not much things that they are telling true, except it's all about cool stuff. A commercial "sponsor" can be really interesting for an open source project. And i think that the open source world just need it. That can bring lot's of benefits such as additional (or even printed manuals), dedicated developing or working on some stuff which isn't developed yet. Or just improve the whole stuff with a return to the mother project! It's normal you are paid for you work you do during your business hours. It's even noted in the big book. But PFS just doesn't do all what they say to do so. And that's what make me mad about them. They just abuse our world. And letting them do so is just approving that. Which isn't better either.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] "Pro Flight Simulator"
Hi, Flightgear Mac OS X site also has a note. See http://macflightgear.sf.net/home/downloads By the way, one thing I really hate about these products is that they "skip" supporting users. As a result, more than 30 users yelled at me like: "hey, I got your product but I can't launch it successfully. DVD keeps me go crazy!! So I want you to pay me back!!" My answer was like: "yeah, here is the link so go ahead. I wish you could get your money back! FYI, I'm not the seller, so don't yell at me. See the link below for more detail... Etc." Then they find out I'm not the evil and give me a polite apology (or a big question mark with confusion). I'm happy to support all FG users including them, but I don't feel good to hear such complaints over something I never sold :-/ Tat - Tatsuhiro Nishioka On 2011/06/08, at 22:32, Stuart Buchanan wrote: > This was discussed ad naseum quite some time ago on this > list and on the forums. > > Those unfamiliar are welcome to look at the archives for details. > > There's also this statement that we release at the time: > > http://www.flightgear.org/flightprosim.html > > Personally, I think we've all got far better things to do > with our time than discuss this all again. > > -Stuart -- EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.

This guy is allready calling its product "Microsoft Flight Simulator 2011", so he doesn't even care about the trademarks of Microsoft products or its company name. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SX56YCTc5M So it is obviously clear, changing the license will change nothing. He will ignore it and continue stealing. Best Regards, Oliver C. -- EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.

May I ask on which jurisdiction your claim is based? Because I know for a fact that it does not have anything to do with German or Austrian law and am quite sure that there is no other European country where the law works anything like you described and the same goes for the USA. Could it be that you're mixing copyright and trademarks? Because trademarks are the only kind of "intellectual property" rights which you have actually have to enforce in order to not lose them. There's no such need for copyright or creator's rights. For the latter, one cannot even lose them if one wants. They are non-transferable and non- relinquishable.

> .."protection under the GPL", depends on a willingness on the > part of the copyright owners to actually exercise their rights > under copyright law to defend or enforce their copyrights. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't see how willingness to exercise copyright under GPL would require moving to a different license. >From the GPL page: "Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for them if you wish)... "Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it." "For both users' and authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to authors of previous versions." As far as I can see, 'Flightgear developers' do assert copyright and then release their (copyrighted) work under GPL. >From there, the software gets possibly modified, clearly relabeled and denoted as a fork of Flightgear and sold by 'FlightProSim' with the claim that you're paying for support and goodies not in Flightgear and that you can get the source code. If that's true, then for all I can see that is not a violation of GPL - GPL allows charging for someone else's work with or without modification. The possible violation of GPL are about redistribution "For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights." So I don't think it's the case that packaging Flightgear and selling it is a problem, a scam or illegal (moral issues left aside), and it actually shouldn't be called that. The possible issue is if FlightProSim clearly informs users about GPL freedom or not. It does inform users that it's derived from Flightgear though. Would you really be content with FlightProSim putting a link to Flightgear and a small GPL notice on the page - which would make everything GPL-compliant? Or is the real issue and the reason for the outrage FPS causes that some people are not happy with the GPL concept itself? You may feel that it's morally wrong that someone else makes money of your own work. I actually don't - if I wanted to make money, I would work on something different - that's entirely my choice. I feel that the benefit of giving to 100 people freedom to do something by far outweighs the one using that freedom for something I don't like so much.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] "Pro Flight Simulator"
Hi, why make it all so complicated? FGFS is GNU GPL (2/3?). Report that scam to the FSF (Free Software Foundation). Maybe you will get nothing better back than just to report that video to youtube (show prove to youtube, and they must listen) but at least their scamming activity becomes more popular and that fact that FGFS is free software. As far as I know you are legally allowed to do what they are doing as long as you provide the full corresponding source code and where you can get it freely (libre). As I checked their webpage out, there are no such things: No link to flightgear.org and no provided full source code. So for my understanding they are violating the GNU GPL. You SHOULD report that to the FSF and maybe gpl-violations.org Regards, Roland On Wed, 2011-06-08 at 09:05 +0200, Arnt Karlsen wrote: > .."protection under the GPL", depends on a willingness on the > part of the copyright owners to actually exercise their rights > under copyright law to defend or enforce their copyrights. > > ..if there is no such willingness in any FlightGear author, > there is no legal protection of FlightGear, and any scamster > will get away with it, exactly because they can claim rights > to their business on your work, exactly because you exercise > your right under copyright law to choose not to enforce your > copyrights. > > ..in that current scenario we also lose our "right" to call > them "scamsters", and they may win lawsuits on us for crimes > such as harassment, denial of trade, slander, etc. > > ..so you may want to apologize to the scamsters, or, get off > your ass and enforce your copyrights.

Android is not all > GPL anymore...we could do the very same.- Would you really want to restrict the very freedoms that made FlightGear such a successful project, just to have some legal means against some shady people who try to fool the uninformed into paying some money for FG? Chances are, that a different license would not even help, since you couldn't even find out who to sue. I do not have much code in FG, but I for one would absolutely oppose such a useless and destructive move. If not for the freedom, I would never have bothered with FG. I would just have payed a couple of bucks for X- Plane and be flying. Yes, it leaves a very sour taste that people who have contributed nothing are earning money (we don't know how well they do btw.) while the people who did the work get nothing. But the truth is that we wouldn't get anything in any case and we chose it that way. People are cheated every day and thiefs get loads of money. It's sad, but nothing will change that. If you really want to fight those scamers, there's a very simple way to do that: inform people. Marketing. People who know about FlightGear will not pay for an outdated copy. Go out and write about FG in aviation forums and blogs. Write letters to aviation magazines which include articles about flight sims. Write about FG in all the social media you use. Post loads of cool videos on Youtube. Be visible! Everyone can help here and it takes only minutes for every action. This helps not only preventing people from getting fooled, but also to get more users and hopefully contributers which is a hell of a lot better than having to deal with law suits, distracting developers and reducing freedom. I say let's change the fight into one they simply cannot win. That way we will not only stop losing something, but actively win visibility, users and contributers.

The only way we can stop or reduce is to educate the folks in the internet. Doing up various 1 minute video, very similar to the video as shown with same plane and then uploading with the same keywords can help. In our video, we should mention Flightgear is 100% opensource and 100% FREE. We should also warn ppl that Flightgear being repackaged and sold by some individuals and we encourage them to download the sim from Flightgear instead of buying those craps If we can "flood" youtube with similar 1 minute video can be useful Cheers On Tuesday 07,June,2011 11:10 PM, Reagan Thomas wrote: > On 6/7/2011 9:53 AM, Gene Buckle wrote: >> On Tue, 7 Jun 2011, Tobias Markus wrote: >> >>> Dear FlightGear Developers,while a video trip through "YouTube", I >>> saw this >>> suspiceous video: >>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3x6Mc3DyuU&feature=player_embeddedI >>> recognised the Chat Box in FlightGear-GUI-Style.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Pro Flight Simulator disclaimer, accurate?
Hello, Hopefully this gets through, I'm not subscribed on the Devel (or any) fg list. And sorry for breaking threading, I read this this post from the sf ml archive page. I received an ad for %&$ Flight Simulator ( http://www.%&$flightsimulator.com/ (1)) and looked at it and found it eerily familiar. Was only able to find this page: http://www.%&$flightsimulator.com/disclaimer.htm which almost confirmed my suspicion. Scanned the devel mailing list archive (is there a way to search the ML?), and came across this post. Jari Häkkinen wrote: > So I suppose one could test them by requesting the source.

They only have to provide the source to you if you somehow received the binaries. This hinges on what "public" means in release. see: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#GPLRequireSourcePostedPublic + the 4 following questions. To be guaranteed right to request a copy of the source, you do need a copy of the binary. Anything else, becomes a debate on what "public" means.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Pro Flight Simulator disclaimer, accurate?
I love the contradictory passages: - ProFlightSimulator is an open source stand alone Flight Simulator. - Customer support is only an email away (Open source products do not offer any support) They say open source projects don’t offer support (despite FlightGear offering community support through the mailing lists and forums), but then they say ProFlightSimulator is open source, but offers email support?

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Pro Flight Simulator disclaimer, accurate?
I have no time for detailed legalities of the message but one should note regarding GPL (at least v3 and probably v2, maybe it is time for fg to go v3?) 1) It is legal to fork a GPL project at any time if some conditions are met. In simple terms the forked project must provide their modification in machine readable form. 2) It is legal to try to make money out of GPL software Comments on 1). A simple google search (I used "source site:proflightsimulator.com") will lead to http://www.proflightsimulator.com/downloads716/ReadMe.txt where we can read Source Code: Full source code has not been included in the download area, however it is available on request. Please contact us if you require this. http://proflightsimulator.com/support/ So I suppose one could test them by requesting the source. They should provide it in machine readable form and then we can scrutinize their modification and use them if we choose to (and this would actually benefit proflightsim!). If they do not provide the source then they break the license agreement. But are we prepared to battle this in courts? Probably this is the only licence breaking proflightsim does? Comment on 2). If they provide a better user experience (as they claim to do) then go ahead an charge your user base but remember to provide source to whoever requests it. I do not support their business model mostly because they make it hard to get their source code modifications (i.e., no simple download source link) and are somewhat obscure with their relation to fg. However, we must accept that others may be able to make money out of GPLd software. The way to counter the above is to make sure that flightgear.org is so much better than the opposition that the opposition fade away. Unfortunately this does not always mean technical brilliance from a user point of view but rather user experience. That is something proflight may have realized, I have not tried their package so I cannot make a judgement whether they improve user experience or not. I think that the single most important thing fg could do to fight flightpro and similar is to improve user experience and release often. I think that the latter is being worked on. I know that user experience is getting better all the time but there is a lot more that could be done for the non-technical user. But these two points are assuming that we want to expand the user base.
