Why are you constantly arguing that I'm anti commercialism? I have never criticized commercialism in this thread, and probably never on ZFGC at all... Please understand what I'm trying to say. I'm against proprietary software. Software which has owners that deny users freedom to share, modify and build upon the software they use. Free Software is the opposite of that. It allows any use, sharing and modification. This has nothing to do with money, selfishness or anything, it has to do with software freedom (what you're allowed to do with the software you receive and use).
You DID say you would release it open source and let anyone do whatever they wanted to do with it. Just read my last post where I explained for Windy.
And the only thing I said at first was that if you're going to do it with XNA you would not allow people to use your software to its fullest. I do not believe you do this intentionally. I thought it was just accidental because you weren't aware of the problem. That's why I decided to give a small hint and explanation. I did it not to scorn you or something, I only did it to give you an advice. It was from the beginning meant as constructive criticism (and it's still meant to, although you seem to have completely misunderstood that).
Sadly though, everyone starts bitching and calling me things that has absolutely nothing to do with what I said. "OLO Conspiracy theorist! Anti-capitalist! Communist! Anti-commercialist! You want everything to be free/gratis in the world, how is that ever going to happen?". Then I have to keep on telling it's not !@#$% what I'm saying. I'm not saying anything of that.
