************************************************************************** * Edoriea License agreement * ************************************************************************** In compiling this code, you have agreed to the following restrictions on any operating version of ROM code: 1) following all guidelines in the diku license (contained in the file license.doc) 2) following all guidelines in the Merc license (contained in the file license.txt) 3) The login message to your mud must contain a notice that it is based on Edoriea1.0, copyright 2003 - 2004 Dranith. The help files must include a Edoriea entry, readable by all players, and unaltered from the file included with the source code, except as authorized by the Edoriea authors. The login screen means the screen you see when you first connect, excepting one-line "Do you have color?" messages, and the readable by all players means it must be viewable by both new and old characters on a 24-line terminal with no scrollback. To make it more clear, you cannot put the credits on the top of a 24-line ascii graphic, as this would cause the credits to scroll off. In any case, final decision on compliance/non-compliance with this requirement is left soley to the judgement of the ROM consortium. 4) Before opening a Edoriea1.0 mud, you must send email to the author (cfr_mud@hotmail.com), so that I can keep track of sites for future code releases. 5) Any use of the term Edoria remains the exclusive right of Dranith, this includes the sole right to release future versions of Edoria source code, and the title Edoriea as pertains to a mud. Names such as John's Edoria, AnotherEdoriea, are also forbidden. As a coder, you have full rights to release your own derivatives of the Edoria code, provided they follow the restrictions of this license, contain all appropriate README and credits files, and are properly labelled as being derivatives of the Edoriea1.0 code (just as Edoriea is itself a derivative of Tartarus and Rom2.4 code). 6) Anyone not wishing to follow terms of the Edoriea license shall be obligated to delete all copies of this code in their possession. This includes, but is not limited to, failure to display full credits for Edoriea, ROM, Merc, and Diku. 7) Collaboration with known Diku, Merc, ROM or Edoriea license violators on any Edoria code project is strictly forbidden without written permission from the auther or Edoriea. 8) I would appreciate emails on any bug fixes and how you went about doing them. (In English, this means that Dranith is the only one allowed to release Edoriea source code, as apposed to Edoriea derived source code, and that you cannot call your mud Edoriea even though it uses Edoriea code. You also aren't allowed to deal with code thieves) If you have any questions about this license, please send email to Cfr_mud@hotmail.com.
