Garrysmod Port

Hi, I'm Parakeet. I spend a lot of time writing lua scripts for Garrysmod. A year or so ago I decided to implement Obsidian Conflict entities in lua so I could play OC maps in Gmod. I also wrote a really simple gamemode to emulate OC. It was pretty successful, but I only ever ended up using it with some friends in a private server. I figured it wouldn't be a good idea to release it since it relied on the OC team's content. A few days ago I remembered I had it sitting on my hard drive, and figured I could at least ask the OC team if they'd let me publicly release it.
So, Obsidian Conflict Team: I'm asking your permission to complete my gamemode and upload it, along with some maps and content from your mod, to the Garrysmod Steam Workshop. I'd make it clear that it was based on your mod and link back to your site. Although it would be running in another mod, I feel like this would be a good way to get your mod more exposure.
I understand that you might be hesitant to trust me and that it could be difficult to reach a consensus, especially with retired members. I've been sitting on this for a long time, so I'm fine with whatever you choose.
