3.9 Release Team forming

Hi all.

As Goran announced, we're setting up a 3.9 Release team, and I'm 
leading this particular team.  Marcus did most of the leading for 3.7, 
Michael for 3.8, so I guess it's my turn to step up for 3.9. :-)  
Having a separate team for only 3.9 is probably the best approach, as 
someone else will probably lead the 4.0 effort, and there's always some 
overlap between consecutive releases.

This team will mostly perform coordination work, as various project 
teams make progress and we get feedback from the community and 
stakeholder contacts, figuring out which major items will be able to 
make it into 3.9 versus later releases.  And of course the usual work 
with managing the update stream, setting release dates, preparing the 
release image, etc.  There's been talk of June/July for a potential 
release date, but nothing is set in stone right now.

The 3.9 mailing list is already set up and can be accessed at 
http://discuss.squeakfoundation.org/ .

Of course the "big issues" can always be discussed here on squeak-dev.
