Who owns the CFS software now?

Did Microsoft sell it off before or did they sell it to Steam or do they still own it. If Steam owns it and sets up some online arenas for WWII air combat I will rejoin steam.

I can't provide a proper answer. About the time I was checking on this (@ ten years ago), Microsoft sold license to Atari to produce new copies for public sale. It was my understanding this was just a redistribution license and Microsoft still owned the copyright.
