"Have your legal team examine what I have said here. I bet they don't have a clear technical understanding of what the Tailor does. If they are of the understanding that the Tailor "copies" protected data, they have been misinformed." Jeff... after reading every single thing that's been posted in all of these threads since this began, I'm no longer certain that DAZ has a clear technical understanding of what Tailor does. Or what "follow curves" in a modeling program does, for that matter. "Please contact me off-line and if your project does not fall within the areas that we are trying to protect then I will be glad to work out a special letter for you giving you legal rights to do what you need to do. " Dan, if soulhuntre's projects don't fall into an area that's actually protected, he doesn't need a special letter of permission to do anything he's legally entitled to do already. That's like a cop giving me a special lettr entitling me to drive trough a green traffic light - nice to have, but it's a bit redundant. so far, based on extensive reading of this, it looks like every "clarification" and every public statement made by Daz to "lay things to rest", instead merely muddies the waters a bit more and raises new questions. While really laying very few of the ones that keep being asked to rest. I think it's really cool that you guys are being nice and giving everyone such braod latitude to produce seat covers.. er, Vicki covers. ;] I'm also questioning wether the latitude is your to give or with hold... just as JeffH is, and for probably the same reasons JeffH has for questioning: like Jeff and like soulhuntre: I do know a bit about code, and a bit about what modeling programs and morphs do and do not do. And like Soulhuntre and Questor, personally, I'd feel a bit better if you took these statements out of the "conversational" and non-legally binding venue of public forum, and put them in your EULA where they might have admissibility if a test case does go to civil court. Forum posts aren't accountable in civil law. Only criminal, as I understand it. Not that you guys would DO that of course grin but you can say all of the reassuring things in forum you care to and then conveniently forget them in a copyright court. Especially if you cahnge your minds later and rescind all the groovey "permissions". What's the historical quote I'm searching for? Ah yes... "knifed from behind with such surpassing smoothness... " Btw.. tis interesting to see that Chad's no longer respodning. Benched the 2nd string and sent in the 1st line, ne? ;]

"I am a good person now and it feels... well, pretty much the same as I felt before (except that the headaches have gone away now that I'm not wearing control top pantyhose on my head anymore)"
