Actually, according to their website, it's released under the GNU GPL -- no
modifications at all. What I was proposing was to develop the software
first, then sell the thing as a commercial app that people can modify for
personal use. The minute they want to use it for commercial gain, they have
to pay us a license fee. Mind you, we wouldn't let the datafiles out for
free -- you'd need to buy a copy of the game for those.
