I'll note that DGD was written from scratch to be an LP-alike, and can be licensed for commercial use. Beek has indicated in the past that he's gotten permission from the original LPmud copyright holder to license MudOS for commercial use, but I don't know if he's done so. With an LP, you'd still need a mudlib. The two mudlibs for DGD may be licensable, but I'm not sure. However, writing a mudlib isn't as difficult as writing a mud from scratch. -- |\ _,,,---,,_ Travis S. Casey <efindel#io,com> ZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ No one agrees with me.
