Hey Tobias, when a new version of Squeak is nearing release, you
presumably need to validate that Seaside and all of it's dependent
projects load/run in the new version, at which time you'd update the
configuration/baseline as part of the validation ... and also run tests,
etc. Both Grease[1] and Seaside[2] are up on github and use smalltalkCI
and travis-ci to run tests, so for that, you could fork Grease and
Seaside, edit the .travis.yml file to include the new squeak version;
edit the baseline to include the new Squeak version (all of which could
be done from your web browser) and when you commit, travis builds are
kicked off automatically -- if the tests pass on travis-ci, you issue a
pull request for Grease and Seaside and Bob's you uncle ...
