Disney's Squeak Project
Jim Thompson writes "Today's edition of Project
Heresy at CNET News covers a very interesting new (?) project
called Squeak by, of all people, The Disney Co. This project,
targetted at embedded devices, has a Smalltalk heritage and is based,
to some extent, on code from Apple. Apple required that Disney not
commercialize their product, so Disney has released it as Open Source.
Squeak is not itself an OS, but the Heretics speculate that Squeak
will soon be married to a scaled-down linux kernel an ported to all
sorts of handheld devices. Squeak sounds reasonably cool in that it's
based on Smalltalk-80 and has what sounds like a built-in "skins"
feature for its UI. Do any Slashdotters have more info on
Squeak, on where to go for more information?
