Just some brief comments:

1. Within your credits.txt file, you state "Parts based on Smaug, ( c ) Derek Snider and Emlen, ( c ) Owen Emlen".  If your mud contains parts of Smaug, then that makes it a Diku/Merc/Smaug derivative, bound by all appropriate licenses.  Indeed there are many obvious similarities with the Diku code, despite the language translation.

2. You repeatedly use "( c )" as a copyright notice.  However "( c )" is not legally recognised - you should use "Copyright", or ©.

3. Windows is generally a poor choice for running a mud.  Not only does it suffer from stability issues, but it also makes it much more difficult to find hosting.
