I had some feedback from a new squeak user over the weekend, so in ftp://ftp.squeak.org/3.9/mac
we don't have a separate Squeak 3.8.18beta1U.app.zip which forces people to download the entire bundle (VM/image/changes) from Squeak3.9-7067mac vm 3.8.18beta1U.zip just to update their VM. if we could add a Squeak 3.8.18beta1U.app.zip that would be helpful.
The macintosh os-9 user also point out the link on this web page for os-7.5 to os 9.2 users (They seem to still exist)
http://www.squeak.org/Download *MacOS 7.5.5 to 9.2*
points to http://ftp.squeak.org/current_stable/mac/Squeak% 203.8.9beta7.app.zip however being a zip file means it's actually unusable on OS-9.
Therefore could we change the link and point to
Squeak 3.8.9beta7.app.sit
which is a *.SIT file and provides a workable result on OS-9 after unzipping.
The two files Squeak 3.8.18beta1U.app.zip and Squeak 3.8.9beta7.app.sit can be retrieved from
