--- "I'm not trying to be selfish. I'm helping other people. Having multiple programs of the same base creates competition, which we are trying to avoid as much as possible." ---

^Competition is bad now? Since when? Why shouldn't people be able to make whatever they like? You aren't helping people with this, you're trying to restrict them and tell them what they can or can't do. And in an open source environment that's just ridiculous.

Also, you can't force people to work together just because they happen to be working on similar games, and there's no guarantee they would work well together and get anything done. And why shouldn't they be allowed to make and post their own unique versions of the same concept? Does it really matter if two or more people make their own versions of Space Invaders for example?
