Dear Craig, Jerome, the board et al.<br>

Personally, I'm against people deciding on their own to make
releases with official-sounding names.

It does not make sense to use any other name for this project than
3.9.1 for the following reason. <br>
<br>
The question that I am putting to the community, as reflected in the
question I put to squeak-dev, concerning what fixes people want to see
in 3.9.1, is this:<br>
<br>
<b>"What does the community want to see in 3.9.1 if/when it exists?" </b><br>
<br>
If the question was, "what do you want to see in 3.9plus", then the
answer would be "anything you like its your image", and that entirely
misses the whole point.<br>
<br>
I have put together a forum for discussion and developed some of the
tools for discussing, planning, specifying, automatically generating,
and testing a minor release. The content of that release remains
entirely open for discussion. The password for the site is "viewpoints"
so you can dive straight in.<br>
<br>
I am not presenting the community with a release saying this is 3.9.1
take it or rename it. Rather I am presenting the community with an
extremely embryonic process ready to be applied. This process has been
sitting there doing nothing for a few months, so lets use it!<br>
<br>
May I reiterate the content is open for discussion, and I think that
the process is also as visible as it can possibly be. You dont even
have to wait for me to generate a build you can do it youself from the
command line.<br>
<br>
So then, what if anything <i>would</i> you like to see in an official
squeak 3.9.1?<br>
<br>
best regards<br>
