[Bf-committers] Node system for game logic

[Sergey Kurdakov]

Hi Sjoerd,

so if you want games based on hive system to be GPL - then
there is no problem with your GPL position.

It is just - there are far too fewer games with GPL license ( maybe three
orders of magnitude), than all games,
and those successful GPL games do live OK without hive.

so, unlike Blender - which could be used to create models, your system will
have
quite narrow use. And of cause, it is your choice.

But then, even with Blender gamedev ecosystem - you could not expect much
interest.
GPL games are developed for fun and not because there is a good system to
use, commercial or
quasi commercial developers ( free or demo games etc ) - do search for
efficient solutions.



as for LGPL/BSD discussion
then even GameKit depens on LGPL Orgre3D and other LGPL libs,
so any additional LGPL lib will not change much ( even if GameKit is
licensed BSD
 - it already has LGPL libs being included )

Regards
Sergey
