The reason may not be only for a lack a human resources. People may
think it does not worth the effort for a project where the license issue
has not be fixed. I bet that with a better integration of Squeak in the
free software community we may have more success in harvesting and
things like that.

Yeah, regarding code owned by Dysney, I guess Morph anbd Etoys count for
a major part, right?
In the other hand, reading at the Tweak RoadMap, in particular:
---
Morphic+MVC Removal
Tweak 1.0 should have enough support to be able to drop Morphic and MVC
from it; 1.1 should be complete enough to be able to do all programming
activities in Tweak itself (ToolBuilder might affect this).
---
It looks like Morph and Etoys should be replaced step by step by Tweak.
At least it will be a major move forward regarding the Squeak
integration in the free software community...
