Ok, that part is pretty clear now. But what about the About dialog?
Everybody seems to know what is NOT sufficient, but nobody said what
information we can write there?

One suggestion I like best was to drop the copyright notice there and
replace it with something like "use the source, luke".

That's a decision too big for kde-games-devel, though.

Many people might not care about issues that seem unimportant enough
to be safely ignored for years. But I feel strange with leaving a 1997
copyright notice there and cannot just change it to what comes to my
mind first.

Regards
