It would be good to update www.squeak.org with this latest license information. I'll do it on wwwtest.squeak.org if I find time sometime soon.

I think this is of general interest to all Squeakers:
Just out of curiosity. They say it's FOSS. So what is the license of the OLPC image and VM? Apache as the article suggests?
VM is MIT (see current SVN sources). Image is Apache.
Because we only ship the binary image and no sources in the OLPC OS builds, we could already release this under Apache license. However, Kim Rose is sending out contributor forms at the moment, all contributions since Squeak 1.1 are going to be MIT which is compatible with Apache. Once this is finished, source code will be fully under Apache, too, and we expect this to be finished before the first real OLPC laptop ships.
