I really wanted to stay out of this, but this goes beyond your usual "argument over code license" debate.

There is enough doubt about this codebase that a user innocently downloading it and assuming they have it under one license could be in for a shock down the line.

I'm not declaring anyone right or wrong in this thread, but there's enough risk to our users that NiMUD can no longer be promoted here.

The thread is locked and a 'moderator note' has been added to the first post.
