Andreas responds:Interesting. I didn't even know that discussion was on ;-)
Yeah, we discussed it at the last board meeting. We decided I would postan introductory message about the Squeak 4 effort to squeak-dev, after which Tim would post the meeting notes. Apparently Randal mentioned this a few days ago on the Squeak IRC channel (BAD Randal! :).
I'm currently vetting a draft of that message with the rest of theboard, and getting that Spoon release out. For those keeping score, that means the order is Spoon release, Squeak 4 announcement, meeting notes. Oh what a lovely surprise it will be! ;)
Can the board recap the high points of the discussion here and let the rest of us know what tipped the decision in favor of Spoon instead of some alternative direction?
Yep, that's in there. I'm as annoyed as anyone at the timescales, which is why I just took offfrom work for the rest of the week to do this. I'm shooting for next Tuesday.
thanks,-C
