=== Contribution Policy

We welcome contributions to the Merc Mailing List at merc-l@netcom.com

You can send the mailing list areas, spells, skills, bug reports, bug fixes,
code, ideas, comments on our documentation, interesting stories, or anything
else.

EnvyMud is devoted to open release.  Once we accept a contribution, it will
become available to the entire mud community.  Also, once we accept a
contribution and integrate it into EnvyMud, we will not remove it later if you
change your mind.

You are welcome to use any element of Envy in your own mud, as long as you
follow the terms in 'license.doc', 'license.txt' and 'license.nvy'.  If you
take things from EnvyMud we'd appreciate e-mail from you.
