- The Inform 6 Library is licensed under either
- 1) The traditional Inform license as described by the DM4, or
- 2) The Artistic License 2.0 (see ARTISTIC).
- The user is free to choose which license to accept, i.e., free to choose
- either set of terms and conditions.
- Here is the relevant bit from the Inform Designer's Manual, 4th edition:
- Copyright on Inform, the program and its source code, its example
- games and documentation (including this book) is retained by Graham
- Nelson, who asserts the moral right to be identified as the author
- under the Copyrights, Designs and Patents Act 1988. Having said
- this, I am happy for it to be freely distributed to anybody who wants
- a copy, provided that: (a) distributed copies are not substantially
- different from those archived by the author, (b) this and other
- copyright messages are always retained in full, and (c) no profit is
- involved. (Exceptions to these rules must be negotiated directly
- with the author.) However, a story file produced with the Inform
- compiler (and libraries) then belongs to its author, and may be sold
- for profit if desired, provided that its game banner contains the
- information that it was compiled by Inform, and the Inform version
- number.
