Cool (:

It'd be nice if PMs had a "report" button or something.

So, slap Oolite onto CDs and sell it at your local car boot sale at £3 each I'd be surprised if people thought £3 was an acceptable price for sticking something free on a CD. Well, you don't have to make the fact that it's free obvious . A readme file on the CD should do the trick. They'll just ass...

You can't make money by selling the program - it is available for free. I'd rephrase that to, "You can attempt to make money by selling the program, even though it is available for free." Put it on a CD and sell it if you want. To directly quote the GPL: You may charge a fee for the physi...

What does this all mean to us simple folk? It means it's now also free for commercial purposes. This means that it can be installed as a pastime in an internet café, for example.

I think that'...

I don't think Oolite is the problem as I also get "GLX missing on display ":0.0" when I try to run Beryl....

Beryl requires a GLX server. Oolite does not. That's a separate problem.

Please stOop...

Perhaps they're pointy for when you're fending off pirates (or you're attacking helpless traders) at low planetary altitude or within the sun's corona? These are atmospheric environments which we can visit, where the sky isn't black.

Hope you reach the back before you finish exploding? It does work, but I've lost cargo doing that...
