Hi,

I would vote against merging, in principle.

My reason: Squeak and Croquet have different goals, people, organisation (at 
least this is my observation from outer point of view). So I would not 
bother each other. But I can see it would be practical at this moment if 
posts are low. So if we can going back any time, make what is the best for 
practice, but in general I would keep them distinct.

Regards

Hans
