I meaning in the past , many who begins with Squeak only need hit the
updates button.

Now , seems people need more.

You and lots of people do a terrific work in Mantis.
Mantis is a tool still all need learn how to use , until some better tool
arise.

It's not bad do all kinds of experiments, I doing all the time.
When at some point we discover our mistakes, we should recognize and go back
to the right way.

But Squeak is about objects, I believe.
For scripting , many others languages like Perl exist.

Ralph teach me to avoid Doits and all should go to  Classes and Methods.

I made tons of mistakes in 3dot10 !
Take two releases all know Monticello could't manage a complete release.
I very confident in Monticello 2 and maybe some of DeltaStreams could do the
trick.

Sure Test is not a silver bullet, but is some useful.

And we are people , not computers , so at some point we should made hand
work.
