It is a bit of a long story but in the early days I had some trouble with MMBasic being under the GNU open source licence. But, open source does have its advantages, particularly with people's perception and fostering cooperation. So, we thought that we will give it a go for the PicoMite (the Raspberry Pi world is very much into open source).
BTW, I have always maintained that the Maximite/Micromite licence is open source but it was not open enough for some people.
I hope that this does not digress this thread from Peter's excellent work.
