PT Polocies and FAQ

I'm leaning towards no. While you could "design from scratch", unless you had proof that's what was done then you'd run into it looking like you just copied and changed the license. Perception is important.

If so, LDraw parts for "Big Ben Bricks" (even designed from scratch) could not be included into LDraw Parts Library as Third Party parts, because its manufacturer provides LDraw files itself under copyright (recorded in DAT headers) and it would be hard to remake it in different way i follow LDraw guides: (Update: This was not correct case for the BBB)

  Code:

Same for "Fx Bricks" (PFxBrick): https://github.com/fx-bricks/fx-track-ld...-1-ov-file
Fx Bricks provided LDraw models itself under CC BY-NC-SA, thus could not be included as Third Part as well, but there are a lots of Fx Bricks already submitted on Part Tracker: https://library.ldraw.org/tracker/list?t...value%5D=1 (Update: Fx Bricks are not the same)

There should be more clear policy on Third Party allowed cases.
