I have recently restumbled upon this. I was in the middle of looking what year Raiko was made, to determine the age of Raiko's gun (that I use in Nene). Realizing that it is 8 years old I also notice that the code is under this license.
This means Nene is actually released under the RWPCL as well. Does this mean just this version of Nene, and I can go and rerelease it under a more permissive license if I remove the RWPCL code, or is all of the code irrevocably RWPCL forever.
Because if it is the latter it also makes Rednaxela's code RWPCL, as well as Midboss and RougeDC by proxy. Which I don't want to force on him. Unless licenses are not retroactive, in which case those robots are safe.
All because of the very all encompassing "full source code of your system" clause.
I personally think if I wrote the code in question I should be able to license any particular version of it however I want, even if that causes the exact same code to fall under multiple incompatible licences.
