It is hosted on Sourceforge but the license doesn't seem to be GPL or OSS. http://info.scratch.mit.edu/Support/Scratch_License/License
This is puzzling me.
It seems to be a modified MIT license that requires attribution.

Yeah, that's old-style BSD. The attribution requirement runs counter to the open source guidelines, so that license would not be OSI approved. That means that app shouldn't be on SourceForge.
NM, I checked and it isn't SourceForge hosted.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
It looks like they used a wiki program that is sponsored by sorceforge to create their web page. thanks for the clarification on th3e license.
For those that don't know it's already portable. You only need the launcher for Portable Apps Launcher.
The licensing seem confusing. It say that the software behind Scratch is GPL [http://info.scratch.mit.edu/Terms_of_use] but another license says this:

I don't have a short attention span. I just...oh look a kitty!
when I went to go check it out. I see lots of "available free of charge" references, but no open source. Am I missing something here? I guess now that PortableApps.com is offering freeware it could work, but there are many issues with BSD based licensing options that most aren't aware of.
I used to sign here, but the ink keeps smudging on my screen.
