You've made that argument before, and the refutation is always the same
- basically, there are no dogs to awake: whatever happens, we'll have
the stuff at least under the Squeak-L. The worst thing that can happen
is that Apple and/or Disney slam the door on re-licensing. At least we
will know where we are then, can forget about getting back to these
discussions for the coming fivehundred years (I'm just extrapolating US
Congress' copyright extensions here ;-)), and continue with our daily
business.
Unless you know something we're unaware of, so far...
Regards,
Cees
