<div>The annoying licensing person here again. Sorry.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>PPL may, or may not, be compatible with the Squeak
License. My first review of that license indicates that the
question may be, well, complicated. I am heartened by the
specific provisions distinguishing Covered Code, from modifications
to Covered Code, to Larger Works. In particular:</div>
<div><br></div>
<div><font face="Times New Roman" size="+3" color="#000000"><b>3.7.
Larger Works.</b><br>
You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code with other
code not governed by the terms of this License and distribute the
Larger Work as a single product. In such a case, You must make sure
the requirements of this License are fulfilled for the Covered
Code.</font><br>
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+3" color="#000000"></font></div>
<div>I consider this to be quite promising, as compared to the
problems we had with GPL. However, if there is going to be a
large development effort to this end, the question should be fathomed
early on.</div>
