New Bespin Release

I'm having a hard time understanding what the Bespin license and structure is. More to the point, this "release" seems to point towards a "server-only" update, which doesn't seem to have a source code repository.

So -- they are releasing an open-source thin client but keeping the server side closed-source ? That doesn't sound encouraging...

The server and client are both open source. You can choose from the MPL, GPL, or LGPL.

The setup guide for the server is available here:

Thanks !

I went to http://mozillalabs.com/bespin/ where you have a "Developer Resources" menu but it only links to the bespin client, not server.

Direct link to 0.7.1 announcement:

Mozilla, please let people test Bespin without login. Or at least provide a way to recover a password, and let us login with an email.
