Yes I tend to agree, although there is precedent for this: In the case of SH2/DC Neal/Subsim was permitted to hire an external developer to work on the source code replacing the faulty RTime networking code with a Direct Play solution. So who knows... If they could see a benefit to the product's sales and the right NDAs were in place.... But I think the major stumbling block as many have indicated is the enormous price of the Granny system and it's per seat/per product licensing model. Also I think Ubisoft is a lot more corporate & "professional" these days so our requests are likely to fall on deaf ears.
