I think we could certainly control that and serve as sort of project development leaders for it. We can setup a place where anyone with access can freely contribute individual things rather easily on the fly.
The actual server database with everything sourced into it we could restrict access to if we wanted or we could just make completely open and public like the PEQ db releases. It really doesn't bother or concern me one way or another much.
I'm not opposed to sharing it frankly or portions of it. What comes around goes around. If people want to spinoff their own ideas from it they can. If they are intent on cloning some of our ideas they'll ask around and figure out how to do so regardless. I don't see it being worth the effort of trying to deter them. We might stand more to gain from just helping out the EQemu custom mod scene from positive karma.
If we planned for it I believe we could categorize portions of it what is sourced in a way that we can delete a % of non vital custom stuff with minimal ease for stripped down base versions of the db that could be made public to everyone.
