Hi Andrew,
Just a quick glance at SqueakMap shows me that few packages seem to be
under LGPL.
I hadn't realized that StarBrowser was listed as LGPL (or if I did I
forgot). I've written Roel to see if he would be willing to change it
to something else (MIT?).
Do you think that even having LGPL packages pointed at by SqueakMap is
a problem, or is it just their use you're concerned about?
Thanks,
