   I really want to stop having to play the !if conscientious objector. The #inform 6 stdlib license affects licensing of games using it!

     @spacehobo What do you mean? I6 is free and opensource (artistic license): see http://inform7.com/sources/i6n/

   • Space Hobo farvardin

     @farvardin The compiler is free and yet the standard library is not. I can't #GPL my work because that conflicts with the library licenses!

     @spacehobo No, all #Inform libraries are really free software, released under the Artistic Licence 2.0: http://inform7.com/sources/webs/ .

   I guess I'm seeking an #InteractiveFiction language with the conceptual clarity of #TADS and the wit of #Inform.

     @rwhe Oh, where is the plan for #faif? I recall Emily Short being outright antagonistic, and only the I6 compiler is #faif now.

     @spacehobo Going out now, but poke around http://inform7.com. Some of it being held back presently because it fails as a *literate* program.

   • Space Hobo

     @rwhe That is indeed encouraging, and the Artistic License for the I6 compiler is good news as well!

   !fossgaming fans interested in storytelling may want to try interactive fiction, though technically most !if is not F/OSS.

     @farvardin Thank you for welcoming me in the French #IF community. Sorry I couldn't be much help.

     @claudeb I am most concerned by #inform licensing. V6 !if compiler is #faif, libraries and v7 preprocessor are not.
