Re: [Nel] Congratulations + concerns

[Michael Warnock]

By way of introduction, I am working on a couple of games making use of nel- 
commercial games.  In addition to selling our content and service, we consider 
our game rules our ip and there are a couple reasons why they can be 
implemented without violating the gpl (which i consider scripture).  First of 
all our rules will be in a brand new specification language in 
their own files or database tables and wont be compiled or linked at all.  But 
should we run into speed problems for not hardcoding everything, we're still 
not required to release anything- you can quite legally use gpl'ed code in your 
own, unreleased programs- and why should we release the server side code?
