I must say, I probably go with Sebastian on this one although I have every simpathy with the views expressed by PK, Kirk and Matt.
For one thing, just about every analogue synth has a similar envelope design, somebody copied somebody else's design somewhere.

i'm not saying the circuitry is copied: the fascia/appearance of the modcan env and boolean are EXACT copies of the serge. a
total lack of integrity there, if you ask me.

OK so many of the ModCan modules are copies, but many are no longer available from the original source.
I'd hate to see Rex spending money chasing after other (minute) manufacturers when he could be continuing his good works with STS.
or conversely: "i hate to see modcan refusing to spend money copying other (minute) manufacturers when he could be
continuing his works with modcan".

i wish i could say more, but suffice it to say that the intellectual property, including trademarks and designs, owned by STS will be protected against theft and infringement.
