-<P>The NeL FAQ tries to answer the most pertinent questions that come across
-the <A HREF="mailman/listinfo.cgi/nel">NeL mailing list</A>.</P>
-
-<!-- What does the acronym NeL means? -->
-<TABLE bgcolor="#dddddd" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 BORDER=0 width=100%>
- <tr>
- <td width=1% valign=middle><img width=6 height=14 hspace=2 vspace=2 src="/inc/img/reddots.gif"></TD>
- <TD><B>What does the acronym NeL means?</B></TD>
- <TD ALIGN=RIGHT> </td>
- </tr>
-</table>
-<P>NeL stands for <B>Nevrax Library</B>. It is a set of routines aimed at the
-development of multi-user virtual environments in an IP network. It is used as
-the core for client and server software to create various forms of Internet
-entertainment.</P>
-
-<!-- Is this for a game? -->
-<TABLE bgcolor="#dddddd" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 BORDER=0 width=100%>
- <tr>
- <td width=1% valign=middle><img width=6 height=14 hspace=2 vspace=2 src="/inc/img/reddots.gif"></TD>
- <TD><B>Is this for a game?</B></TD>
- <TD ALIGN=RIGHT> </td>
- </tr>
-</table>
-<P>Yes and no. NeL is technically available for all forms of Internet
-virtual environments, but is clearly aimed toward making a
-Massively MultiPlayer Online Role Playing Game (or <B>MMORPG</B>) as its
-first commercial application. The associated client and server software,
-which are distributed along NeL are for that type of game.</P>
-<P>Details on the game itself are not available right now, for commercial
-strategy reasons. However, a sample game will be available along with the
-code base.</P>
-
-<!-- Any other games? -->
-<TABLE bgcolor="#dddddd" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 BORDER=0 width=100%>
- <tr>
- <td width=1% valign=middle><img width=6 height=14 hspace=2 vspace=2 src="/inc/img/reddots.gif"></TD>
- <TD><B>Any other games?</B></TD>
- <TD ALIGN=RIGHT> </td>
- </tr>
-</table>
-<P>Nevrax, as a commercial entity, does not have other games scheduled
-right now. However, nothing stops anybody else from using the NeL platform
-and making a strategy wargame, or a virtual city, or anything else.</P>
-
-<!-- Have you checked WorldForge/Crystalspace/QuakeForge/others...? -->
-<TABLE bgcolor="#dddddd" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 BORDER=0 width=100%>
- <tr>
- <td width=1% valign=middle><img width=6 height=14 hspace=2 vspace=2 src="/inc/img/reddots.gif"></TD>

-</table>
-<P>We have looked carefully at the other Free Software projects available,
-before reinventing the wheel. They're all more or less compatible with ours,
-on a purely license level, thanks to the <A HREF="free/GPL.php3">GPL</A>, but
-that does not mean they can fit in our development. We (the NeL maintainers)
-are a commercial entity with a specific product to be delivered on time.</P>
-<P>We want to keep a tight focus on the game we are doing right now, and
-thus did not want to get involved in political struggles to get the code
-we would need in, and did not want to create resentment by "taking over"
-and steering other projects toward our goals, or creating a code fork
-for our own purpose. Our timetable requires us to be more or less in control
-of things.</P>

-<!-- How can you make money if you're writing Free Software? -->

- <TD ALIGN=RIGHT> </td>
- </tr>
-</table>
-<P>That's the catch. Free Software doesn't mean free content, or free
-service. While the software will be free, we retain property of our game
-data and game servers. Free Software and OnLine games are a perfect match,
-as these games are not really just code, but rather a service provided
-to subscribers which will pay a monthly fee to access our servers to play
-our game.</P>
-<P>We believe that we have everything to gain, and nothing to lose by
-opening the source code.</P>

-</table>
-<P>The <A HREF="/">site</A> has a <A HREF="bugs/">bug
-report</A> section devoted to this. The easiest thing is to report the bug
-using the appropriate tool, which ensures that your bug will get attention
-and you will be notified of the bug's progress and eventual eradication.</P>

- <TD ALIGN=RIGHT> </td>
- </tr>
-</table>
-<P>NeL uses an abstraction layer to separate the engine workings from the API
-use. In theory, any API can be supported. Right now, NeL uses OpenGL to
-get more portability across operating systems. Any card with an OpenGL
-driver will thus work fine.</P>
-<P>Other divers can be added, including a software mode for those who really
-want one. But performance without a 3D accelerated card will probably be
-abysmal.</P>
