Yeah I know, I just never expected anyone else to take interest.
I'm often torn between gpl and bsd/zlib.

If something's open source with no commercial intent, is there good
reason not to use gpl? How hard is it to change later?

I've written a spectrum emulator. Good fun.
It could play games from cassette tape attached to the audio-in port ;)

Yeah, I understand point 3. It's a good exercise to write an emulator,
so a lot of people reinvent that wheel for the experience alone :)
