Watching a Deep Space 9 episode, something caught my attention.
Quoting from:
http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Vorta#History_and_Politics
The Vorta believe, perhaps apocryphally, that they previously
existed as small, timid, ape-like creatures living in hollowed-out
trees to avoid the many predators on their homeworld. A group
of Vorta hid a Changeling from an angry mob, and in return the
Changeling promised that one day they would be transformed
and placed at the head of a vast interstellar empire. The
Founders fulfilled this promise by genetically changing the
Vorta into humanoids and employing them at the highest
level of the Dominion. (DS9: "Treachery, Faith and the Great River")
Is this an Uplift rip-off?

i think it is, alberto. in fact DS9 is also a ripoff of Babylon 5
(outpost at the edge of the galaxy)
