About this resource

Original silly.tar.gz with source, world data, documentation and historical startup/cron scripts. The collection distinguishes this archive from sillyold.tar.gz; no precise release version is established here.

License warning
Preserve every bundled copyright, credit and component notice. The DikuMUD license is not an unrestricted-use license: the included text states noncommercial/no-distribution-charge, notification and attribution conditions. Distribution permission and fulfillment of applicable terms require review; historical availability is not permission. Historical contacts may be obsolete. The VT100 header credits Dan Brumleve and the DikuMUD creators and says it was used with permission for SillyMUD; this is not a blanket grant to a new distributor. BSD-derived source carries additional notice conditions.

Runtime-data warning
The examined player and bulletin-board placeholders are empty, but the archive contains historical staff-access host records. Treat such configuration as potentially private and obsolete; no complete privacy clearance is claimed.

Historical software warning
Modern compiler and operating-system compatibility are unverified. No compilation, boot test, malware certification or comprehensive security audit has been performed. Review configuration and bundled scripts before deployment. Original bytes, notices and documentation remain unchanged.

A download checksum confirms file integrity, not security or runtime compatibility. Review the source and included documentation before running unfamiliar software.

Attribution stays with the work.
