I have ported SPORT to GemStone and I am in favor of an MIT license...

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:

<blockquote>

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.
