Unfortunately, this cannot be done.  I have discovered that the Paradise
server code has an annoying "non-commercial use" clause that prohibits
distribution for a fee.

I'm working to correct the copyright and license problems with Paradise.

The client meets the specifications, though the license is weak and poorly
written.  Contact me off-list and we'll work on something.

The client has had a major overhaul, and the two trees (TedTurner and
standard) have been merged.  In addition, Dave Ahn has merged in many
fixes from the Bronco client.  We are planning a new release Real Soon
Now.

Thanks,
Jeffrey.
