I know your agreements with publishers/developers are secret and long-winded legalese...
But can you try to start including a clause such that a developer MUST keep the GOG version on part with the versions elsewhere (no missing patches, etc), else they forfeit their share of sales until they do return parity [sic] (minus a cut during the wait, of course...). And of course that you can continue to sell the product (not profiting them) in the meantime?
This is kind of imperative for the success and HEALTH of GOG in the face of a near monopolistic competitor.
