Hey,
As you already know, I'm getting a Glest package in shape for FE. I'm almost
done, but I'd like another advice. The license for the game code is GPLv2,
but the license for the game data reads :
« This software is provided without any express or implied warranty. In no
event shall the author be held liable for any damages arising from the use
of this software.
This software may be redistributed freely, but all redistributions must
retain all occurences of the above copyright notice and web site addresses
that are currently in place. »
It doesn't say that I may modify it, but since one of Glest's features is
that it can be modified using XML, I'm pretty sure they overlooked it in
the licence.txt
So I was going to ask the team for clarification, but which licence should I
propose for game data ? BSD ? CC-BY ? CC-BY-SA ?
I wouldn't ask for a specific license, the current one is fine for FE, you could ask if modification is allowed and ask them to add a statement explictly stating this to the current license.
Regards,
Hans
