"This plan" being to add Tweak to 3.9? Depends. For the "basic" image the answer is No. That's simply because I will not knowingly add to that 20MB whopper that is euphemistically called a "basic" image today. For a "full" version (which really just means that it'll be loadable via SqueakMap) that's something we can talk about. Which is not quite a yes, but thus far I haven't even looked at what it means to get Tweak into 3.9 and I am willing to re-evaluate this option.
Hi Andreas,
I think there are people who are interested in a system with Tweak that is useable as an universal basis for:
- a personal desktop system. - deploying a desktop application. That implies that special hardware should not be needed, that the resulting image is reasonably small and perhaps some flexibility in the UI look and feel. - server applications that are developed and run in an UI-image but can be shrunk down to a headless version if appropriate. - something else not covered directly by the above points but imaginable like e.g. a "browser-bootstrapped" application
Right now I guess there is some confusion or fear that you may target only the personal desktop system like you do e.g. with Croquet. Of course there is a road map at impara.de that looks promising, but I think a little more affirmation about the universality of the announced stand-alone Tweak and perhaps some updated temporal guidance would be helpful to get people really interested -as in- getting them starting a Tweak project.
