Seems this point is still without a minimal consensus.

For me, Squeak is a descendant of original Smalltalk.

Any disagree ?

Because the way of Smalltalk is a image in chicken and egg cycle and any
image comes from previous one, mutating in the process.

And Smalltalk is about objects and not about scripting.

Any not sharing this should be on another list.

Also Squeak once was a wonderful fun world for all.

Children's, teachers, researchers and web developers.

I have deep respect for Pharo people, but fellows, Pharo is not Squeak and I
don't lost my time with it.

I know my SqueakLightII is not a silver bullet .
I name it SqueakLightII , because 3.11 name was taked at the time and I have
a SqueakLight before, but is really a logic step from 3.10.
Smaller and more modular.

Yesterday I have another fight on IRC with no minimal consensus.

Some say I can't made image and others could do.

Others say I should join they and I saw 3.11 folder empty, like when I
create it a long , long time ago.

We don't have more with us to
Dan , Ralph , Ned, Diego , Steph , Tim , Pavel, etc.

If I don't put some , is by lack of memory.

So Herbert , you should know me better.
I don't wish be destructive.

I wish AWAKE Squeakers.

Edgar
