Fully FOSS version (data licensing)?
Posted: 06 May 2016, 09:51
So a while ago we had this discussion about data-licensing, which sadly isn't fully FOSS compatible so far (some CC-by-NC etc.):
viewtopic.php?f=81&t=6448
But a large majority would have preferred a fully FOSS version (kind of a given on this forum ).
So I guess if someone would make a new fork, this would be one of the things to "fix".
Here in this thread we can collect resources for replacing the non-Free ones.

To my knowledge, right now, (and I'm not sure about some), things that have weird licenses are:
5 VDrift cars (3S, 360, CT, M3, TC6) actually quite few to throw out (360 and CT can be replaced but that needs work).
4 VDrift tracks (nobody will miss), actually Vdr3-dirt3 is from Torcs so I guess maybe 3.
All car sounds (basically just 2), except electric (UV,BV).
All skies, have a clause to not be sold, I'm assuming here CC-BY-SA-NC. Not even imaginable for me to replace them with anything.
OGRE trees (IIRC: 2 trees, 1 grass, 2 ferns, 1 palm) with clause to be used only with Ogre. Could be replaced without much trouble.
Super Racing cars (S1,N1) and many wheels, IDK which license, asked and didn't get reply, I'm assuming MIT like the project (might be wrong).
