About this resource
Original rom24src.tar.gz. Unofficial ROM 2.4 source snapshot described by its distributor as obtained before official release. Incomplete provenance and distribution permission require review. Credits ROM by Russ Taylor / Alander and contributors. Merc by Michael Chastain, Michael Quan and Mitchell Tse. DikuMUD by Sebastian Hammer, Michael Seifert, Hans Henrik Staerfeldt, Tom Madsen and Katja Nyboe. Preserve individual source, component and area credits. RomRaider is named as the distributor in readme.now, not established as the source author. License and attribution Applicable inherited DikuMUD and Merc notices require retained notices and attribution and impose noncommercial and other conditions. ROM notices add release-specific login/help credits, notification and reserved-name conditions. Read the exact bundled versions. No unrestricted-use or public-domain grant is asserted. Historical contact addresses may no longer work. The distributor text claims there is no copyright and invites removal or replacement of authorship. Those claims do not establish permission from the original authors. A complete applicable ROM license was not identified in this snapshot. Do not rely on the distributor disclaimer for approval. Compatibility and safety warnings Historical software not compiled, executed, malware-scanned or security-audited by Mudhaven. Modern compiler, operating-system and save/world compatibility is unverified. Matching hashes establish byte identity, not safety or distribution permission. The companion rom24src.readme says this may be incomplete and was contributed before it should have been released, recommending an official release instead. Preserve this unofficial, premature-source provenance. Exact version and completeness are unverified.
