Ok, first of all a license is a form of contract. Secondly, the bundle of rights that comes with copyright ownership dictate what you can do, and what you are allowed to do is revoke licenses within 40 years of their enactment. See Stanford.edu's Fair Use information for clarification posted somewhere else in another thread.

Well, Chris didn't have kids (second generation heirs) so his family (father, mother) get the other 50%. They have expressed to me that it's up to me. They have watched this thread and I'm sure they aren't happy about insults directed at me and his son, especially where people claim that we aren't its authors.

Also, there seems to be some confusion about the term "OLC" - while I did create this term along with Chris, I don't own it as a trademark. However, for historical purposes, I am the first person to call "online building" "online creation".
