Or is in general applicable or not? I think it's pretty clear it doesn't apply to any of the Razbam Modules, seeing as the following is in the first post by 9L: "All modules continue to function 'as is' and despite not receiving any access to source codes or cooperation from Razbam and its external developers, Eagle Dynamics will do its best to ensure that these modules continue to function in 2.9.X.". I would take from that statement that ED does not have access to the source code of any Razbam module, they plainly spell it out. Edited 4 hours ago by JuiceIsLoose 3 2

I would take from that statement that ED does not have access to the source code of any Razbam module, they plainly spell it out. In fairness, as with most things like this, we have to infer a bit. I don't know that we will ever know for sure if Razbam was or wasn't required by their contract to provide the source code. ED withholding payment from the only 3rd party dev that we have had confirmed wasn't providing their source code makes me think that maybe the lack of source code sharing for the modules was kind of the crux of the whole issue, but like I said before, that's just a lot of inferring on my part while not really having the whole picture. The hope is that the bridges aren't permanently burned, and maybe at the end of all of this, ED can at least get the source code in exchange for whatever agreement they make, but that feels optimistic given the way things have played out so far.
