thinking of a modified GPL that allows witholding updates 60 days or something.

@icedquinn to what end.. note you can withhold up dates as long as you want so long as you dont release the program.
@freemo theres a problem in small game communities where they have to spend resources to make custom content, but then the license requires them to release the custom content.
now what some of them do is just flat out ignore the obligations.
the ones that are honest run in to the trouble of having a hard time competing for members because they can't really do anything without everyone else also getting it immediately.
by putting a short delay it allows the small server to have some exclusive 'thing' that will, eventually, still be released. but in the interim they still have uniques to pull players with.

@icedquinn makes some sense. However if your careful enough to seperate out the packaging of your assets and your source code you can probably get away with keeping the assets private and only open source the source
