[Seaside] [ANN] SqueakSource3 Public Alpha (http://ss3.gemstone.com/)

[Hannes Hirzel]

I assume that depends on how people use it. It might be used as well
as a secondary storage in case the Berne Squeaksource is down. Or for
new projects with a copy then in the Berne repository. .....

For the moment it is just for testing.
