I do not understand why you want to oppose traits and tweak. There is no such an opposition, after this is clear that there will be some work (but the problem is not with traits) to remove Morphic and use Tweak but we already said to andreas long time ago that we are ready to help.
Apparently as usual you are talking but without knowing.
Stephane,
the last thing Andreas said regarding 3.9 with Traits in relation to Tweak was, that because of a series of errors he ran into caused by the class/metaclass changes by Traits and given the pain he experienced while porting Tweak to 3.8 he didn't want to investigate these errors further, and he didn't even mention making another port of Tweak to 3.9.
Moreover he gave an interesting and *skeptical or cautious* overview about what Traits is and what it is not in his opinion.

You responded to this post but as usual you ignored its implications. In fact you keep on ignoring Andreas' complaints about what you stuff into the update stream since a long time. Moreover, you try to turn down every skeptical opinion about Traits. At least you ignore it.
But, you could proof me wrong, here and now, and I will withdraw my assertion that you behave ignorantly. Just agree to the idea that Squeak makes from now on a minimalistic release Squeak-Core, with Squeak-Traits and Squeak-Tweak (and perhaps others) on top of it.
