Licensing Questions

I hope I got this straight, but I'm probably confused. What I want to
know is what is the proposed license for the current and new images.
Here's what I think is true, please tell me where I am wrong:

* All Squeak images (except version 1.1) are subject to the Apple
Computer, Inc. Software License shown at:
http://www.squeak.org/SqueakLicense/

* Squeak 1.1 has moved to the APSL - the Apple Public Source License
(http://www.opensource.apple.com/apsl/2.0.txt)

* The community/SqF Board is gathering authors to be part of a new
licensing scheme for the current(?) and newer(?) Squeak images. That
license is the MIT license. I gather that this text is correct for the
MIT license:

http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php

Is this all true? I have some follow on questions after this is confirmed.

Is there a person that is "in charge of" or coordinating the licensing
issue?
