Since then, Razor and Psychobastard and I have maintained our own versions for A2, but given that it was not ourwork to begin with, we have never sought to prevent anyone from adapting it - obviously.
If someone does remake the mission from scratch they would be wise to call it something else i suppose in order to protect it.
If someone takes my work (and it has been years of adaptation, working with many scripters, modders and island makers in the community) and develops it - I say no problem, BUT please don't call it GITS as we wouldn't be able to support bugs/errors easily if it's not our code.
Looks like in IF44 someone has ported evo and then someone else has ported it with a few changes. I don't see a problem with this UNLESS the author of the first release rewrote it from scratch. If they did, they shouldprobably call itsomethingelse as Evo is now generally accepted as "built by kiljoy, community owned"
