 * The problem is that all content on Esolang is licenced as public domain; the GPL places (minor) restrictions on redistribution and relicensing, and so is incompatible with a public domain dedication (which doesn't place any restrictions at all, not even on relicensing or incorporation into a commercial work without credit). See Copyrights for more detail. --ais523 13:03, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * (Note that licencing a description of a language under the public domain doesn't prevent its source code being under some other licence; a public-domain description with a link to a GPL interpreter is acceptable. Also, paraphrasing a description of the language can create a distinct version for copyright purposes, as long as it doesn't copy directly.) --ais523 13:07, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay so I suppose you accept my current solution? If not, please tell me what I should do to comply with the rules of this WIKI.
 * Don't worry, the current version's fine, and you can have the language in the language list (the descriptions have to be public-domain, but the language itself can be under any licence). Hope that helps! (I'll copy this to both your IP and username talk pages.) --ais523 17:32, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
