Re: [Newbies] Licence
Thanks for the info and the clarity!

Hiya,
This has probably been asked a gazillion times, but with the 3.9 release, I was wondering if anything had been done about the embedded Apple Fonts and the current Squeak Licence.
There are no Apple Fonts anymore. We switched to the free Accu and Bitstream Vera Fonts a while ago.
In plain terms I would like to know that if I do not modify any underlying code, and I preserve the licence with the 'application', that I can create any application with Squeak and distribute it for free or for profit.
If you're doing it for profit, you should not just seek advice on a mailing list - IANAL ;-)
A little clearer: I create a Squeak image, tailored to a specific requirement (let's say for example: A game) that I can then give away or sell.
That is what other companies have been doing. E.g., impara with "Plopp" (http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/3898353664). That was bundled with a VM, so users would not even notice it is build with Squeak unless waiting through the end-credits. Looks like any normal app, comes with its own EULA - no license worries.
