Questions.

spending on Squeak during the coming year (in any
kind of unit)?
About 3 hours each day , as average
2. What are in your mind the three most important
issues (not necessarily technical) we need to
address in the coming year?

Community is more as exchanging code, I don´t see this

6. Do you have any specific views on how the Squeak
board and the Squeak
community should work together with the Squeak
satellite communities
(Croquet, Seaside, Sophie, Squeakland, Scratch etc),
also referred to as
"stakeholder communities"?
Maybe take the Serge suggestion on do one
"reunification" long talk in ESUG between all
developers, face to face.

I email to list several times my views.
Going smaller, going modular, give users freedom to
choose, give newcomers less headaches
8. Do you have any thoughts on the current
relicensing effort?
Again , another bravo. this time to Craig .
9. How would you like Squeak to be positioned in the
open source world in year 2012?
Better as now and worst as 2013 !
Starting from small intelligent core , Squeak 2012
could do all for children from 5 to 105

> board?
Give presence messages to all list
11. What actions would you take to promote Squeak as
an environment for professional software
development?
Difficult one. Web development with Squeak seems solid
to me.
Found sponsors for specific projects and show people
we have some others don't
