    Gpl

    I am aiming to make the next release of FAangband fully dual-licenced (Angband licence and GPL). Having just read through takkaria's licence history, I have come to the suspicion that restricting to OS X, Curses, Nintendo DS, SDL, Windows, and X11 (with graphics support removed) ports will be sufficient. Does this tally with other people's understanding? And what is that status of the GTK port?
    One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
    In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

    That sounds right to me. The modern GTK2 port in V is GPL-OK, but I'm not sure about the older ones (nor which one you ship in FA).
    takkaria whispers something about options. -more-

      Yes, you should be fine for GPL. GTK, no idea.

        Thanks. Note that I'm not planning to cancel the WinCE port, just make it available separately (as it is now) as Angband Licence only.

        Out of curiosity, is there anything to stop me releasing the rest as GPL only?

          Not legally, no. I personally keep the 2 in honor of the original creators.
