Comments on: Parsec going Open Source http://www.linuxgames.com/archives/6167 Embrace your Inner Penguin Tue, 11 Jun 2013 12:01:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: cburke http://www.linuxgames.com/archives/6167/comment-page-1#comment-17741 cburke Thu, 30 Jan 2003 19:11:27 +0000 #comment-17741 Though I have to wonder why it wasn’t open source from the get-go. Were they hoping they could ape Counter Strike and get bought? Counter Strike is certainly the exception there. Maybe they were worried about cheaters? Not that it helped Counter Strike. :)

As to the license, I hope it’s re-using an existing license: GPL, LGPL, BSD, etc, just because the world doesn’t need another half-assed attempt at an open-source license. The choice of which one to use would basically depend on the degree to which they want people to be able to take their code and make proprietary stuff out of it.
