Re: WTB: Pin2k glass

"Is the glass a variable tint? meaning it is tinted darker towards the back than the front of the back half? Or is it a solid tint? And what did they say? Have you tried VHT Window Tint spray? http://store.summitracing.com/partdetai ... toview=sku" The top half of the glass it tinted and ...

Re: Nucore software license?

We've kind of beat this topic to death, at this point it's all academic as the Nucore guys have said no, and I'm having to repeat points that I've made several times because people are not reading the entire thread. Key points: * Including source code has nothing to do with the ability to sell softw...

Re: Nucore software license?

]If someone broke into my house, a report could be filed, and I'd know. Trouble is, if somebody can simply download the open source code, and compile it on their computer, there would have to be something in place to track and prosecute them. How it works is community and author policing. It's the ...

"I've used OneDayGlass.com before - they do excellent work, custom cut of tempered/ceramic glass at good prices. - Make sure your measurements are accurate. My last order from them was for a backglass for $20 + $30 shipping, so a playfield glass for P2K shouldn't be much more expensive." ...

Re: Nucore software license?

"ok then Mosten. What would stop someone from taking advantage of an open sourced solution then? How would you enforce it so these people would not take it for free?" If you leave your house unlocked is it legal for someone to come in and take your belongings? The protection is through la...

Re: Nucore software license?

"If showing respect and patience makes me a Troll, I'd like to be one with a big club. It's just sadistically humorous that people will work on a program for 2+ years, and when they want to make it available some people demand all their work for free." No one is asking for anything for &qu...

Re: Nucore software license?

"If it was open source, that means it could be added to MAME and/or run on Windows for FREE! I know of hundreds of millions of people who would love that. It already will work with generic hardware, so what more could anyone want? ( /sarcastic truth off ) btw I want Windows Seven - the new ver...

"2) Given our reason for doing this in the first place I don't think you'll have to worry about this issue. If we ever decided to stop developing nucore we would do something to ensure it's longevity." But we do. I certainly trust your intentions and applaud the work that you have done, bu...

I've been following the development for a while and put some personal skin in the game last weekend by picking up a SWE1 in anticipation of the Nucore release. My question deals with the licensing and source code for the Nucore system once it has been released. Myself and several others that I know ...
