Great, John! I'll update my sources in the next few days, and see how it works.
Question for you: does this edition include any tweaks to enhance network performance? I recall last month there was a discussion about Seaside performance (as measured by the Apache benchmark tool) that appeared to suggest the handling of semaphores for sockets was not optimal. Any enhancements included in this build of the VM?
Thanks again! :)

It contains: a) You can alter the application's Info.plist by setting the SqueakEncodingType using the ICANA readable names
macintosh - >macRoman UTF-8 -> UTF-8
b) Support for sqSocketListenOnPortBacklogSizeInterface, which allows you to specify the interface to use for the listen should work both for os-x and os-9. c) Usage of VMMaker3-7a2. d) Special change sets: make primitive point x/y internal, and slightly faster activate.
