(sigh)

All of it. It's the whole spirit. But if you want the letter,
please go to gnu.misc.discuss newsgroup, or ask gnu@xxxxxxx (I
can't promise he won't flame you or point you to some FAQ). But
for exaple you may try Section 10. I won't start quoting the GPL
here and please kill this thread, it happened a lot of times
before (search dejanews if you absolutely need). Waiting for Qt
2.0 won't hurt you, it will probably be easier to code (read
less clumsy) and by that time FreeCiv will probably have an UI
abstraction layer that may do half of the hard work.
