===Music Enhancement===
The Tinsel engine is a scripting engine developed by [[Perfect Entertainment|Perfect 10 Productions/Teeny Weeny Games]] for their point and click adventure games, based on the Discworld novels authored by Terry Pratchett.
The [http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/?page_id=54 ScummVM Music Enhancement Project] has worked on Discworld's music. [http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/?p=796 Permission] has been given to release this soundtrack. As of 27 Dec 2007 the full soundtrack is [http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/?p=1139 available for download].


=== Freewaring Discworld ===
TODO: Expand/correct explanation about Tinsel / Glitter
In short, we have all the approval needed to move forward with supporting the game and making Discworld freeware. However Discworld is NOT freeware at the moment. It may be in the future, assuming all goes according to plan.
 
Whether the gamedata release will have a DFSG/OSI compatible license remains to be determined.

== Possible Future Discworld Freeware Release ==
In short, we have all the approval needed to move forward with supporting the game and making Discworld freeware.<br />
However, Discworld is _NOT_ freeware at the moment. It may be in the future, assuming all goes according to plan.<br />
When this happens, the project will make a announcement in the usual manner i.e. website news item.
Whether the game datafiles release will have a DFSG/OSI compatible license remains to be determined.
