From: [...] Lex Spoon If people prefer to keep the current subgroup in power and then go from there, then how about simply renaming the group from "Squeak" to something like "Islanders Squeak"?
Speaking personally...
I'm here to try to keep one community rather than several - to the extent that there still *is* one community; to a large extent it's de-facto forked. That means I'm trying to exert pressure both ways. I want SqF to represent the broader body of Squeak users, including me for what use I make of the system. That means (to me) ensuring that SqF is representative of the broader body, which it isn't at present.
The alternative is to accept the fork, at which point I'll leave this mailing list and head over to Craig Latta's side of the world.
Anyway, any organization called simply "Squeak" or "the Squeak Foundation" should surely strive for broad membership from existing Squeak enthusiasts. If that's to be the name, then be prepared for a harder problem....
Quite.
