Correction again: sadly Inform6 requires a library of .h Inform
code, which is necessary to compile any Inform game.
Only the Inform6 compiler itself is under the Artistic License 2.
Inform7 also has a similar library called I6 Template and licensed
under AL2.0, but it's a different one.
So there's progress, but AFAICS Inform6 is still non-free.
Currently the best we can do is moving the compiler itself to contrib.
I just compiled Inform source code like
http://ifarchive.plover.net/if-archive/games/source/inform/freefall.inf
using the bare Inform 6.31N compiler, since this game doesn't rely on
the standard library.
So maybe it would make sense to split the package into
inform6-compiler (in free) and inform6-library (in non-free).
Thoughts?
