This, I think, is interesting - the debian education folks trying to
determine what they can do with Squeak.  I have called off my boys as to
Squeak, now that it no longer associated with Disney - so wish them luck.

I'we got this from Apples legal department in Europe through our 
connections with the company in Norway. Our man in Norway asked if this 
is to live with?

"Squeak is an obsolete product no longer under development by Apple,
so it is not practical for us to re-examine or modify the licensing
terms used by Squeak.  However, the U.S. Squeak community is
exploring the possibility of using the relicensing option in the
Squeak license to allow a third-party to accept indemnification, thus
enabling Debian-style projects to incorporate squeak under a
downstream license.   We are not able to provide you with legal
advice in this matter, but encourage you to contact your own legal
counsel or your counterparts in the U.S."
