The Electric Communities repository contains the source code to Electric Communities, OnLive (the first OnLive, not the game service from the mid 2000's), The Palace, and EC Habitat. This code may contain fonts, image rendering libraries, and other non-FOSS software. These items must be pruned, though still referenced as having existed. They cannot be included in this repo because we are going to distribute the repo under MIT license, and any existing copyrighted materials cannot be included.

Someone needs to actually go through and review, at least, all the libraries and files to make sure they are not copyrighted by anyone other than OpenText, or Electric Communities. Anything that is copyrighted by someone else (Srsly, fonts are a big one) but be removed from the final repo that is made open source. For this reason, it may be useful to fork this code and then open source the forked repo instead of this one.
