works in this case would only involve the scripts ( if any, you could
actually do it all by hand, might end up with finger stress and a bad
case of keyboard rundown ... but hey, could be done ). The Code itself
is all licensed under Open Source Licenses ( various different names /
specifics - but its all open source ).
Maybe artwork and other code additions that his person has created,
might also be included in his own restrictive (c)....
But, I am not sure what that person is trying to do ?
