[Scummvm-devel] beneath a steel sky floppy license and lure of the temptress license

[Joost Peters]

The "right to modify" omission from the CD version's license file is 
probably due to some bad copy/pasting - the BASS freeware license hasn't 
changed for any version in particular.

As for Lure, Revolution's stance is: "do what you like but don't sell 
it" (as Tony put it) - so basically the BASS freeware license.

If anyone can be bothered to update the archives - feel free...


Regards,
Joost
