as far as I could read today, it's now fully GPL and it owns!
>From their home page:
"The game's content and source are GPL. Meaning, it is entirely free and
any of it can be used in other free projects, even if modified. This is
a first for any large game project of its type. We hope this will
support the free game community, and encourage more GPL projects."
