UFO:AI on Ebay??

<< < (2/12) > >>

blondandy:
Seems to be a problem with the ebay reporting submissions system. Could someone with a US ebay account try to report it? My suggested text for the report is

"
There are several items listed as
"Computer PC Game - UFO ALIEN INVASION comparable X-COM"
The adverts say the game is released under the LGPL. This is not allowed. The game is GPL, and so may never be redistributed under LGPL. It is free, open source
http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=157793
"

It occurs to me that a good way to ensure this doe not happen would be to create a UFO:AI "buy it now" item for zero money, or 1 cent. The advert could direct people to get it free from sourceforge.

Hah. Actually, take a look here:

We have a couple of images like that. We could nab him on that!

There's no way to actually submit a text report - you pick categories from menus and submenus - so I reported it as selling beta, test, or evaluation software.  Seems to be the best I could do.  It would be nice if I could submit an actual explanation, but based on how their reporting system is set up, Ebay doesn't seem interested in hearing it.

Received an email from ebay saying I woudn't be hearing back, they will resolve the issue on their own with the information I gave them.  :roll:  

Maybe someone with a little more ebay experience will know a better way to communicate the problem, because I'm not at all confident what I did will result in any action.

I believe we do not. But blondandy is right, of course. Anyone can sell GPL stuff anytime as long as seller saves the license.
But! We do have some CC stuff with Attribute-NonCommercial. Now this is *forbidden* to be sold in any way.
