1) MULTIMEDIA AUTHORING
I personally would like to see an effort to make Squeak better in the
multimedia area -  especially audio.
The base audio functionality needs major overhaul. And, the audio apps
are really old and reflect a technology that isn't up to today's
standards. Not that it isn't, mind you. It just looks that way.

Unfortunately, I think it's a catch 22 situation. While many agree that
the audio capability needs improvement, many in the dev-list are busy
with other issues. There aren't a lot of people like me that are
"composers" or "audio people".
And since, we don't bring in the people that would like to use squeak as
a multimedia development and authoring platform, there's no development
need.
But, I think Squeak has great promise for multimedia authors if we focus
on improving the basics (which is what I'm currently doing by myself).

2) MULTIMEDIA WEB
I'm having loads of fun with Seaside, and I'd like to see a push to
provide improvements for multimedia web deployments.
