About the fonts - I agree. Doug, Ned, how about adding the AccuFonts package, with an answer of "yes" to the replace fonts question, as the first update to 3.5alpha, and producing an image with that update, to create an Apple-font-free official image that we can bring to the Apple table?
We certainly *could* do that; what do the rest of the Guides think?
Ned, when it asks "replace the existing fonts?", can we be fairly certain there's no trace of them left in the image?
I'll check. One of the things that I find with the version on SqueakMap is that the default text font needs to be changed to make it somewhat bigger after installation (to make it similar in size to the NewYork that was being used). We could add that to the installer.

I agree. It is *really* time to get this font issue behind us IMHO. And of course people argue that "there is no issue, yadda yadda" but as long as it forces us to have extra clauses in the license then it *is* IMO a problem.
Let's get rid of them. Then of course, we could always find even more nice free fonts, package them and put them on SM. And we could place the original fonts as a package there too!
