[Box-Admins] [squeak-dev] Should I put my unofficial V3 versions of Squeak 5.2 and 5.3 on files.squeak.org?

[David T. Lewis]

Hi box-admins and Fabio,

I have prepared a V3 image format version of the Squeak 6.0 release
image and put the zip here:

  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TG5mqvgaYB8ddvBwv1qcrY8yHi7QeEa7/view?usp=share_link

Could someone with write access to our files.squeak.org please copy
this Squeak6.0-V3-22104.zip file into the folder at:

 http://ftp.squeak.org/various_images/SqueakV3Images/

I am also attaching an update for the readme.txt file in the
same folder (http://ftp.squeak.org/various_images/SqueakV3Images/readme.txt).

When the file is on line, I will send a note to squeak-dev to let
people know it is there.

For background, earlier discussion of this topic begins at

Thanks and Merry Christmas,

Dave

-------------- next part --------------
As of the release of Squeak 5.0, Squeak images are developed and released in the Spur image format. Squeak 4.6, which was released immediately prior to 5.0, is the last released image in the V3 image format.

This directory contains newer Squeak 5 and later images in the traditional V3 image format. They were created by following the update stream at http://www.squeaksource.com/TrunkUpdateStreamV3.
