The D20 trademark restrictions would seem to block it, because a computer
game would have to reproduce portions of the D20 system rules that are
barred (character creation and advancment). I'm planning to experiment
with a D20-compatible MUD (I'm the author of ROM, one of the MUD bases),
but probably won't brand it as such unless I'm confident of the
legalities.
