You are right, we need to be vigilant here. What I wanted to point out 
is that we need stay out of unnecessary wars, but only be careful about 
license situation, so that SCO won't happen to us. And so far we didn't 
have any legal Smalltalk license dispute, AFAIK. Ok, someone will said 
that this is a consequence of a niche position, but, well, being niche 
is also good sometimes :)

To conclude: we should stay away from staring in-fight and press down 
one Smalltalk just because someone don't like its license! We need to 
encourage a cooperation between Smalltalks instead.
