L.S.,

I found the Functional Game Engine FunGEn on the web: http://www.cin.ufpe.br/~haskell/fungen/download.html It looks useful, but since it hasn't been maintained for a long time, it doesn't compile. Is there a newer version I can download?

Hi Henk-Jan,

yes, see my updates at http://joyful.com/darcsweb/darcsweb.cgi?r=fungen;a=summary .

Thanks to Andre Furtado for this nice engine. I suggested he choose a license such as X11 or GPLv3 so it could be uploaded to hackage. He was unsure about his licensing options given that Fungen depends on HOpenGL and got busy. Please contact him so this can get licensed and packaged for wider exposure.

The HOpenGL stuff is BSD3-licensed like the rest of the base libraries, isn't it? I think that means there are no license restrictions in that direction; Andre just needs to pick a Free license Hackage likes (==DFSG-compatible or OSI-approved). I don't see what the problem is. -- gwern InfoSec Z-150T HERF Met Information Texas Cornflower 20755 Bubba IS
