This process sounds great. I never meant to say that what you're doing is
not visible, apologies if I gave that impression. By visibility I meant the
code would be available in an image so that a user would get first-hand
exposure to it.
By "available in an image" I mean an image that a user can download with
the changes already loaded. From the impression I had gathered before, this
didn't seem to be easily available.
Now I've been pointed to the relevant pages in the wiki I see a lot of very
useful information, and I see that things are well documented and easy to
get. Looking at www.squeak.org, I'd say that some of this information from
the wiki should be fed through onto the website: It can't hurt to show that
the Squeak Community is actively developing their environment in as many
ways as possible.
I'm a little worried though that I was so ignorant to what was going on
with 3.10, but I'm ready to admit that was down to my not having read the
list/website/weekly squeak closely enough to know. Still, I do read the
list almost every day, so I hope my lack of knowledge isn't an example of
others'. Let's hope it was just my blindness :)
