To rewrite the EULA will cost 10,000 dollars according to Larry Weinberg. Is there really much chance of them spending ten grand to rewrite a document they have full confidence in? That's a considerable chunk of change for a company that needs the money it's started earning again. Not trying to be argumentative, just warning not to get your hopes too high. Daz and Curious Labs no doubt will talk, but they're both stubborn and protective of their own interests. It's not just a phone call and stroke of a pen. It's a legally based discussion and 10 thousand dollars. Daz have their concerns with the EULA as have a lot of vendors. Curious Labs have a vested interest in protecting their investment and their software in case they're dragged into court again. That's not something that will be sorted out easily. I doubt that one phone call on Monday morning will do it. I'd hesitated to say a week of discussion could do it. We'll see, but I'm nervous that people will get too excited over something that might not happen because of prohibitive expenses and legal requirements.
