Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Changed: 17c17

Time will tell what role of significance WorldForge will play in the game industry, if any. As it has survived nearly three years as of this writing, and is developing more swiftly than ever in its history, it's unlikely to disappear any time soon. Will its current in-ward focus continue indefinitely, or will it one day emerge into the mainstream? Will it be usurped by commercial interests or find a mutually beneficial balance (as GNU/Linux has)? Or will it somehow manage to remain staunchly non-commercial in an industry becoming as highly commecialized as the film industry?
