Klaus,
Here you find 3.8 gamma
ftp://st.cs.uiuc.edu/pub/Smalltalk/Squeak/3.8beta/Squeak3.8g-6527.zip
and here 3.9 alpha
ftp://st.cs.uiuc.edu/pub/Smalltalk/Squeak/3.9alpha/Squeak3.9a-6532.zip
The zip files only contain the images and changes files, you have to
copy the virtual machine and the sources file from a previous release.
I would suggest that you work in 3.8gamma-6527 as still not many
packages are tested for this release and there are surely configuration
issues.
(cf.
http://map1.squeakfoundation.org/sm/category/8724b5df-75ab-4e3c-9b4c-5e66fd8e0371
the list for the category 3.8gamma)
However many of the packages marked for version 3.6 and 3.7 still load
and work without problems but the owner of the packages didn't do the
test yet or has not been informed that his package works in 3.8.
So tests installing packages and the informing the owner to tag his
package appropriately on Squeakmap are very much welcome.
The packages which are official are listed here
http://map1.squeakfoundation.org/sm/category/3a184d3f-be1e-46cc-89b0-bd8798853ff7
It seems to me that the list is not up to date for 3.8 and has to be
adapted.
However Balloon3D loads fine in 3.8. Andreas Raab did an update of the
package yesterday. It would be helpful to further check Balloon and
Wonderland if the documented examples still work.
Regards
Hannes
