This is interesting because it's the first major Unix game thus far to make use of the Quesa librariesarchive.org (Quesa is an open source, reverse-engineered port of Apple's excellent but probably abandoned-by-them high level 3D API). The press release mentions that the port will be released under the original "charityware" licence. No info on whether a multiplayer networked option might be added, as with past Mac-to-Linux ports like Maelstrom.
