Hey Dale, those are good ideas and I've thought about that, too.
However, that does not help on its own. because even if this brought us, eg, #'squeak6.x' or #'squeak6alpha', Grease would pick none of them.
So, this could work:
1. have an extraction like gemstone below, but
2. ALSO identify as #'squeakTrunk' if version string ends in 'alpha', and
3. Change grease baseline 117 (or push number here?) the specific line from #'squeak5.x' to
a. either #( 'squeak5.x' 'squeak6.x')
b. or #( 'squeak5.x' 'squeakTrunk')
c. or have #'squeak6.x' separate.
@squeak-dev: hoping you are ok with (1), are you ok with (2)?
@seaside-dev: would you rather like (3a), (3b), or (3c)?
Best regards
-Tobias
