Cant say I am sure about the C.Birch orignal vb 2 mod being open source but I cannot locate the complete package, only the php file which mentions nothing of GNU/GPL etc but just a Copyright line.
And the Rapid Gaming vb 3 original port package is also removed.

Alice itself which is the engine is of course open source.

Best bet is wait and see what response I get from Tim himself on having the 202 bot working in vb 3.5x and what he says he will be ok with as v3 is under development and may not be available for sometime.

I am not to sure on the phpbb link the author theres abonded the project it seems almost 12 months ago, and for the AI responses themselves its a case of tweaking the aiml's prior to install or tweeking its extensive db entries aswell as its learning curve.
Besides updating something designed for an older system is one thing porting one in from another is quite abit more and likely take some time with my menial php knowledge.
