Indeed.
A little-known landmine called "derivative copyright" ... basically, the MOD files are (AFAIK) already *owned* by MM in terms of copyright, if they wanted to be bastards about it.
Anything based on a copyrighted work, in a derivative form (i.e. fanfics, etc) is copyright by the author of the original source, barrign specific contractual arrangements.
