Ah a license question.
Well I'm not a lawyer, however my understanding is below, I'm sure
others will comment.
Sophie loads onto a base 3.8.x squeak image (license for that is?)
comes from I think the iSqueak repository.
then we load stuff from
source.impara.de/iSqueak (license?) ask impara
source.impara.de/Tweak (license?) ask impara
source.impara.de/freetype (license?) ask impara
source.impara.de/Rome (license?) ask impara
source.impara.de/Grit (license?) ask impara
I also have stuff from
http://www.squeaksource.com/XMLSupport.html (license?) ask Michael
http://www.squeaksource.com/ToolBuilder.html (license?)
For
source.sophieproject.org/Sophie any category starting with Sophie-
is clearly written for Sophie thus under the
Sophie license. In theory all code in there should be under the
Sophie license however there *could* be some
contamination when you consider we modify or add to existing classes
found in the base squeak and from other repositories on impara.de
Say for example overrides or mod to the base URI class in Squeak,
what license does that method have then?
Other categories
XUL not sure (ask impara) Although since it starts at XUL-be.2 in
the repository I'm sure it's Sophie-License.
System-ClipBoard-Extended Sophie License
System-ClipBoard-Extended-Plugin Sophie License
S3* Sophie License.
Network-MIME Sophie License
Files-Locations Sophie License
These are overrides and additional code to stuff in Tweak, Squeak and
EToys.
Multilingual Sophie License for the overrides and additions, code
base Squeak
Scripting Sophie License for the overrides and additions, code base
Tweak
Multilingual-Display Sophie License for the overrides and additions,
code base Squeak
Multilingual-Scanning Sophie License for the overrides and additions,
code base Squeak
Network-URI Sophie License for the overrides and additions, code
base Squeak
Sophie-Movie Sophie License, but contains OGG code from the EToys
OLPC project, (code base OLPC EToys).
Any macintosh C source code I wrote for Sophie would be under the MIT
license.
Anyone of course relying on this should do their own audit of course.
