Hi,

there is an open RFP for it[3]. The package is supposed to be free, but

The font issues seem serious, and it is likely that Debian would have
to ship Squeak without the non-free Apple fonts.

10MB, are shipped in binary form. I wonder if there should be source
code to create them initially. (See

Agreed on all counts, Brian.
I actually think Squeak should go into non-free on Debian, once the
fonts are removed from the image. I've been meaning to develop a
message to debian-legal about this for quite a while, and now Roland's

The Affero license (or clause in a possible GPL 3, or whatever) actually
does restrict modification, because it says that you can't remove
quine-like code from the work.
