[MUD-Dev] legal mumbo jumbo

[Jeff Kesselman]

BTW... Trademarks are a bit trickier.  The game mechanics may not be
copyrighted, but thsoe marks used to identify products and services in
trade that are NOT generics are certainly protectable under Trademar.  So
using the mechanics is one thing. Using the actual name of the product may
be something else.

[usual I'm not a lawyer so don't thin I'm giving legal advice. I'm not, so
there, kind of thing.]
