Ah that's the part some libraries have in the top of each file. MCServer doesn't have that in all files so it doesn't even conform to it's own license (LOL)!

I also believe that as long as you don't do anything really bad, you can "bend" the interpretation of the rules a bit as you need. After all, the only people who could actually send lawyers on you are the people developing MCServer, so it all boils down to how much you trust this community. Me personally, I consider all my contributions public domain, so do whatever you want with them Smile

Alright, thanks. I don't really want to spend a lot of time on licenses so I'll just do what I think is fairTongue include license and notify that the code is modified...
