I think MOS team is exaggerating a bit. They don't see things quite as strict with AROS stuff.
For example in the sources of some of the keymap files which are all based on AROS "skeleton", the AROS copyright was deleted and replaced with MorphOS copyright. No problem for me whatsoever and I would never complain about it.
I'll make sure that any such wrongdoing will be corrected. If we borrowed some code from AROS and don't attribute it correctly it needs to be fixed. I'm sure that my fellow MorphOS developers agree with me here that this is the right thing to do.
BTW are the said files at least included here: http://morphos-team.net/files/src/3.9/keymaps.tar.bz2 ?

Another example is Locale prefs program (module). Timezone gadget/select image is clearly based on AROS one, but no mention of AROS in about requester or elsewhere. No problem again.
Really? I think they look very different:

Technically MorphOS timezone graphics is implemented by having a single globe map png:
MorphOS/Prefs/Gfx/Timezones/earthmap.png and then smaller "selected" images for each timezone: MorphOS/Prefs/Gfx/Timezones/timezone_<n>.png The actual coordinate data for each timezone is encoded elsewhere as polygon coordinates.
AROS appears to have a two images: first the worldmap and then the timezones one where each timezone is encoded in the different color. You also explain how this thing works in the workbench/prefs/locale/pics/README documentation. MorphOS doesn't work anything like this.
