Actually, I'd like to know that too. At our university theres nothing that prohbit us from doing whatever we wish with the software we produce. Their university must be a ****ty place if they STEAL the students work or force them to not use it as they wish.
I might actually call DIKU and check what they say.
It is even likely that their IS NO agreement between the DIKUmud team and the DIKU university regarding the software, just because there doesn't need to be one. They may have written this poorly because they thought they couldn't use their software as they wish... I know some people at our university think the same, even though we're free to do whatever we want with it.
Who would want to do projects or other univeristy materials or research IF the things you research cannot be used commercially? A restrictive rule like that (which is the "intent" of the diku licence) would severely harm the progress of technology.
Take for example if DIKUmud was actually a medical tool to cure cancer or similar. No hospitals could use it, because they were prohibited to use it commercially. Whatta pile of horsedung.
