Lunarwars Cease and Desist Notice
In the interest of full disclosure to the community I worked so hard for, I am publishing this cease and desist notice. I sent this notice to Sandro only minutes ago. Anonymous simply cannot forgive; it is not in our nature.

Delivered-To: owlmanatt@gmail.comSandro Bassi,
I am writing to you today to request that you immediately cease and
desist use of any and all copyrighted code I have written for
lunarwars.net over the past several months. Because I no longer have a
vested interest in the project and because you have stated your
intention to continue generating revenue from lunarwars.net, I do not
feel it prudent that my intellectual property be used to your personal
benefit any longer.Since no prior agreement to transfer the copyright of the code
declared below, I hold the copyright to my works. Any implied
agreement to use, redistribute, copy, or modify my work is henceforth
revoked effective as of May 24th, 2007.From my final backup of the site (from May 19, 2007), I have
identified the following code as being infringing. Note that in many
cases I cite entire files; these were either my original works or
completely rewritten from scratch (to accommodate the new war system,
mainly) by me. Where the entire file was not written by me, I have
identified significant portions by line number and only request that
those sections be removed.== BEGIN FILE LIST ==

== END FILE LIST ==In order to respect your intellectual property rights, I have deleted
any files from my backup that are not in the above list. I know many
of the files are Fusion files, but they have been heavily modified by
both you and I. I have no use for these files, so they have been
deleted in order to avoid an awkward situation.Furthermore, I request that any database tables I have designed
completely by my self be removed; these likewise are my intellectual
property. I no longer have a copy of the database, but as I recall,
the following tables were wholly designed by me:== BEGIN TABLE LIST ==
fusion_improvements
fusion_improvement_type
fusion_war_participant
fusin_war_event
fusion_war_event_type
fusion_npc_colony
fusion_npc_colony_template
== END TABLE LIST ==I would ask that you confirm your compliance within 48 hours. If not,
I will escalate the issue to abuse@hostmysite.com and follow up with a
letter to their designated agent in charge of DMCA compliance, as per
their Acceptable Use Policy (), section
‘Copyright Infringement.’.I hereby state that, under penalty of purgery, the statements
contained in this notice are, to the best of my knowledge, true and
accurate.I would like to thank you for your anticipated cooperation and am
sorry that it had to come to this.Sincerely,
Nicholas ‘OwlManAtt’ Evans
Former LW Developer
