If the source of some program that is based on Crafty is released then I guess that there will be no problem to call it in a name that begins with Crafty(see Crafty-classic of Mike Byrne) so there is going to be no problem with it. The only problem is written permission from the author and I see no reason that Hyatt will refuse to give it. Uri
