- If you want to use my resources and the only way I'll contract them to
- you is for you to sign over some part of your ownership in your
- product, you have two options. One, do it my way or two, find another
- resource.
-
- I repeat, it is the owner of the resource's right to set the rules
- anyway he so chooses.
