Eric>>I believe that this was a big victory for CDN. <<

I agree! I just worry about future victories. I have seen crooks get away with murder frequently. The key here is that AVNT did not have the time effort to do a good job with the source code. Smart people going over the code and getting a full understanding of the logic could even improve on CDN's code and introduce significant changes on design. for example they could go from a procedural language like C based on functions to an object oriented design (i.e., C++ for which the design unit is an object with imbeded functions). However, I agree with you they probably went for the easy fast fix of just dressing uo the code a bit.

I am not developing right now but I have implemented my descrete event simulation models myself, using first C and then C++, working with developing teams in which other people would design the GUI, database etc. and I designed the guts (engine for the model).

Since AVNT has been proven guity before I do hope they won't get away with murder.
