[Vegastrike-devel] parsec getting opensource

although they as yet make no mention of the license:


" January 28, 2003 -- We are currently preparing the entire code base of
Parsec for a full source release in early May 2003, which will mark a
major change in the structure of the Parsec Project.

The source release will include platform support for Win32, MacOS X, and
Linux, and contain both OpenGL and Glide rendering code. It will include
almost everything that has been part of the earlier LAN-Test releases,
as well as our new client/server code that is already far along in
development. However, it is our hope that this release will be picked up
by the Parsec community for further development, supported by members of
the original Parsec Project.

This release will be the last official release of the original Parsec
Project. It had been our intention to achieve a full-featured release
including Internet game play in 2002. However, we were always doing this
in our spare time, and since it is taking us too long to reach our
original goal, we do not want to keep the Parsec community waiting any
longer and have thus decided that it is time to change Parsec's
development model to an open source approach.

We intend the official Parsec webpage to become the central hub for
playing Parsec and continuing Parsec development. We would like to
dedicate the upcoming release to the Parsec community, and hope that
Parsec will live on and prosper as an open community project. Enjoy! "
