Hi Sport contributors Today while browsing the seaside repository I saw that there is a Seaside30LGPL and I was puzzled. I looked and I saw that this is because it uses Sport and Sport is licensed under LGPL (probably the only packages in mainstream Smalltalk). I asked Bruce if Sport could be relicensed or have a dual license MIT/LGPL here is his answer:
Steph,
We've had this discussion before, and as before I'm fine with this in principle but it's not me alone to say. Sport for different dialects was written by different people.
Sent from my phone. Please forgive brevity.
So if you participated to Sport can you reply to this mail so that we can get a dual license LGPL/MIT. And yes I'm nervous about mixing licenses in an image-based system that a infinite minority of programmers understand or even know. Stef

Hi Stef, I as a porter od Sport to Squeak/Pharo am all for Sport to be MIT licensed. As I understand past conversations with Bruce the dialect porter/maintainer approval is then a satisfying condition for Sport on Squeak/Pharo to be MIT licensed.

Hi guys, I hope we all agree now for MIT so I just changed Sport license on SqueakSource to MIT, so that now on both SqueakSource and SmalltalkHub Sport is MIT licensed: http://www.squeaksource.com/SPort.html http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~Sport/Sport Note than there is only one Sport for both Squeak and Pharo and probably Cuis as well.

If I understand correctly, this might be a bit premature. I had to fill in a paper form declaring my agreement to the relicencing of Squeak, and I'm pretty sure Pharo had to do the same (because I had to fill in a similar form for Pharo). As I understand it, the Sport port folks need to compile a list of every contributor and get each contributor to formally agree to the relicencing. frank

I think that, in theory, mixing LGPL (which is much less strict than GPL) and MIT is authorized. Still, it is simpler if everything is of the same license, I agree. -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm."

I agree to MIT relicensing of all LGPL Smalltalk code I've ever written (_not_ GPL, that's another story). Paolo

Dale, I think that would be fine too. One of the aims of Sport is to be the ubiquitous surrogate for missing standardisation between dialects, and MIT does appear to be a better licensee if the objective is ubiquity. I think I'm the only author of the GemStone port, but perhaps you know of others and perhaps you've added some bits too? :-) So if you are sure that you know all contributors to GemStone Sport then we can say that it will join the Pharo port under the MIT license. The agreed forum for Sport was c.l.s so we should announce any proposed license changes there too. Bruce On 20 July 2013 12:39, Dale K. Henrichs <dale.henrichs@gemtalksystems.com>wrote:

Bruce, I will scan the commit history for GemStone Sport and contact the contributors and ask them to respond.
