Sorry, my fault, I quote myself from the initial post:
"Btw - perhaps we should change the wording "Squeak comes under an open
source license" to perhaps "Squeak has a very liberal license" or
something like that. I think the last word on OpenSource certification
was that SqueakL is NOT OpenSource."

Yes, I know.

Well, it was never meant to become a long thread! It was just a detail
that I thought could perhaps be changed in order to avoid
misunderstandings or accusations of false claims.
But obviously I am quite alone in thinking this - which may very well
mean that I am "wrong" - so let's just forget it, it's not that I care
THAT much! ;-)
