Yoshiki.
I'll forward this information to the Ubuntu Squeak maintainer.

Do you know who I should talk to about requesting that
http://www.squeak.org/SqueakLicense/ be update to reflect this information?

thanks

  Hello,

  1. The statement Walter quoted (As of this summer, all of the code
  contained in our Squeak Etoys version 4.0 is covered by either
  the Apache 2.0 or MIT Licenses.) is correct.  Edward quoted the
 email I sent around while ago.  We have a license-clean Etoys
 V. 4.0 developers image.

  The problem here is that edubuntu and its packages are in Ubuntu
 Main,
  and for sugar to be in there, there must be no non-free software in
  it, and squeak is not totally free. Apple fonts not being modifiable,
  iirc. Its pretty much the same policy as debian. Scratch was recently
  rejected from MOTU for the similar reasons.

   2. Apple fonts has been removed from any newer Squeak-variations,
 including Etoys.  So, Apple fonts is not an issue.

  Is the issue where squeak was originally licensed under a non-free Apple
 license[1] and the squeak foundations can't
  locate all of the original contributors[2] to convert it to an mit
 license?
 
http://www.squeak.org/SqueakLicense/
http://netjam.org/squeak/contributors/missingSignatories

   3. Just looking at missingSignatories without looking at actual
 code is misleading because their code are alreay removed or
 rewritten.

  4. We haven't made an RPM or any package from the dev image yet.
 Making a RPM doesn't take long, but we just haven't gotten around
 testing it enough...  Of course, one way to test it is to create
 an RPM and have people try.  If you say we should, we can
 certainly do so from the current v 4.0.

  5. So, if the license was the problem, there shouldn't be any
 problem for including the latest version of Etoys into such
 distros.  If the development model is the problem, well,
 solutions are potentially implementable, but would take some time
 to carray through.

Squeak (at squeak.org) and Etoys (at vpri.org / squeakland.org) are  
two different versions that were last merged at Squeak version 3.8.  
The full relicensing for now only applies to the Etoys version, but  
the squeak.org version will certainly follow soon.

Re: [sugar] sugar 0.83 in joyride

2008-11-06 Thread Tomeu Vizoso
Hi again,

I'm thinking that perhaps best would be to create a joyride branch
similar to faster that sugar developers could administer by ourselves.

In that way we wouldn't be blocking on each other so often and Sugar
developers could more easily adapt Sugar to the OLPC hardware.

Sounds good?

If there's any problem with this, please explain.

Thanks,

Tomeu

 Built locally these rpms. Anybody sees any problem if I build them in
 the OLPC-3 branch? Or should be in F9? Or F10 if we intend to switch
 soon? What if we decide to do a 8.2.1 release?

 sugar-0.83.2-2.fc9.i386.rpm

 that can't build from source to be non-free.

 Thanks for the reminder of this issue - I'll take it up on the edubuntu list.

Actually, on digging I found we have etoys and squeak-vm in Ubuntu, in
multiverse - which is the non-free repository:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/squeak-vm,
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/etoys

In this state it's not distributable on official Ubuntu CDs, such as
the Edubuntu CD, but it's easily installable.

We'll work on fixing the non-free status in the next Ubuntu release
cycle, if possible...

My perspective is that Etoys is an important part of Sugar, and we'd
like to have it in Ubuntu as soon as possible, but it doesn't hold
back the rest of Sugar. The Edubuntu community is interested in Squeak
already, for other reasons, so there are a good number of people who
want it included.

If possible, we'd like to see it in Debian, so we can maintain it
through the usual sync with Debian.

[sugar] NO (formal) design meeting this week.

2008-11-06 Thread Eben Eliason
Hello all -

I apologize for the lack of organization of the biweekly design
meetings as of late.  Unfortunately, I'm going to duck out this week
as well, as I need to focus heavily on a deadline for next week.
However, I will remain on IRC following the sugar meeting and will be
more than happy to discuss any thoughts or ideas that are brought
there.  I just haven't had time to prepare any visuals or set an
agenda myself.

So, if you have something to say, please say it!  The informal meeting
is in #sugar-meeting in about 30 minutes, at 15:30 UTC.  I look
forward to getting back on track with planned meetings on the 20th,
