No apologizes needed. Basically I don't care if people try to influence
Zombie. Hmm, well, yes it does really matter, I'd like people to get
involved. I have worked very hard with Zombie in '99 after a long period
of nothingness, but now my energy is running low. I've managed to hack
together what I call a 'package' but which apparently isn't that good.
I've the last week(s) worked a little bit on using autoconf to solve
problems related to compilation etc., but it just doesn't work the way I'd
like it to work. Basically I'm getting a mild 'burnout' about the whole
thing, and this license-discussion was a bit too much. I'd like to get
feedback about the whole damn thing, but I can't get that before I've
managed to create a good package which can be officially announced and
used and people can try it out. It's a 'Catch 22'-situation...
