I will most likely be releasing the source under the AGPLv3+ (Affero General Public License version 3+) some time in the next few months. This is the same license that Shoddy Battle is distributed under.

I do plan on having the AI be fully self-sufficient. That is to say, I will at some point have it make its own teams, but that's much farther down the list. My thinking is that team building is a more complicating thing to do than battling (as long as the team isn't just a derivative work of other teams), and you can battle without really knowing too much about team building, but you can't build a team without knowing how to battle.
