Squeak is fairly robust already, and folks are otherwise free to test 
2.9 as they like.  I might suggest that taking arbitrary updates out 
of order may be a recipe for disaster and confusion.  Don't worry too 
much about minor repairs in 2.8, lest we end up with multiple 
"stable" versions, a 2.8 that works, a patched one that has other 
problems, and so forth.

Just get 2.9 done when you can.

We can wait.
