Thanks for that, I made a mistake in a hurry :)), I will made correction, only 
libaiarena would be LGPL rest is GPL. and I beileve this would be my first 
and last LGPL since I beileve i true GPL.

Yes but if I organize a league they will distribute their code and this would 
spoil the fun after first round. since everybody will have all ideas. and 
could take all other source codes. And result everybody would have the same 
program and that is what I wish to avoid. And soultion for that is temporary 
non-free programs :(((, but they could'n not use the library to create 
comercial programs :))) since the library is dump and it is tight bounded to 
the simulator :))) ( simulator do everithing).

I will try to encourage players to release their programs as free softvare. To 
allow others to catchs some ideas.
