I just saw that thread here, were WaterPimp sais its a WhiteWater clone. If he was involved in the blocks design, and he makes that comment, well then I can see the point you guys have about comparing it to the WhiteWater. I mean, the guy sais he took the idea.
So, i dont know. Im not sure what I could say about this issue and be fair. But these kinds of things are what international patents are for. Let the legal system decide who has claim to the design.

No one here (at least I think) wishes this block to suck. It is just the manner in which it came to life and the way DD calls it there own. WRT the patent issue, If Cathar patented the WW when he designed it, about a year and a half ago, he'd still be waiting for the Patent to go through and would have spent thousands of dollars. And for what? He knew the WW would be outdone eventually and who wants a patent on a block that is no longer the best?
