Interesting article on Sid Meier's stance on open source.

I see I'm too late to sign up. Any idea how the petition has been received by the source code holders?Comment
-
Well, Firaxis has no knowledge of who has the code, if it exists. Take2 and Sid has been going on about how they own the franchise so they probably have something. Yoshi, over at CivFan, has gratefully taken up stewardship of the petition for the time being.Comment

I highly suspect that the civ2 code is long dead. Though it may live on, deep inside of civ3 and civ4...Comment

Not necessarily, seeing Sid's take on open source in the interview and the fact that a version of Civ2 was developed for a mobile phone* does gives credence to the idea that the source might still exist.

A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

is anyone who signed the list going to the Apolyton Convention in 2006? perhaps they could bring it up with one of the special guests who are supposed to be being invited?Comment
-
I will not be there, but I would be happy to send the petition to someone who would present it to those attending.Comment
-
Yes it would be good to have a stand/representation at the convention for this issue.
I would be willing to be involved in some activity, just not confirmed if I can get away from work commitments to attend at this stage.Comment
-
I believe the petition has not changed since its last posting in this thread. I'll post it again just so someone has an up to date copy.Comment
