Some important steps happened indeed: the trunk is a real advance in
direction of a "pro-squeak". Since trunk "release" community has been
more cohesive and several "historic" issues have been approached in a
very positive way. Things are much better now than they've been 6 months
ago. I guess that at some point in foreseeable future most of the issues
regarding to "commercial use" of squeak will be dealt with.
