Re: Compliance reminder if your MUD uses OLC

Promissory estoppel certainly seems to be mentioned a lot in relation to bare licenses - both the real property version and the copyright version. So I don't really think it's as non-applicable as you may think.

He's made the same sorts of claims against Smaug too and Thoric had to chase him around for awhile removing bogus wiki edits trying to claim credit for Smaug's OLC too.

Considering who we're dealing with here I'm almost wondering if Chris wrote the code and Locke is only claiming credit for the work knowing the dead guy can't dispute the claim. May seem a bit ghoulish, but, well, Locke.
