Someone wants it where a person can purchase the rights to copy graal and make their own "Graal"?
Fairyland isn't related to the topic at hand, it was merely referenced as an example. Linux Cyberjoueurs recently changed their name to Eurocenter - they're essentially the same business.

Eurocenter is actively marketting the "QuattroPlay" engine (Graal Online game engine) to any interested party, with the proposed scheme of:
  • QuattroPlay Silver for independent developer, game hobbyist.
  • QuattroPlay Gold for all companies needs
  • QuattroPlay Platinium for big projects / companies needs.

Eurocenter would still own all "Graal Online" trademarks and copyrights, protecting it from duplication unless that was otherwise specified in their licensing contracts.

The matter at hand is, for all intensive purposes, that Cyberjoueurs (Eurocenter) has been drifting further from their poorly developing community (us at Graal Online) towards developing the platform solely for the purpose of marketing it. Some people aren't aware of this, and are still requesting developments for Graal Online, some people are aware and are instead trying to find alternatives to the (modern) development tools they requested.
