I like the installer since I'm writing a chapter on it for More Squeak  
by Exmaple but

I'm reading your web pages and I want the fixes to be published on the  
squeakFoundationSqueakSource
as any of the other packages 3.9 published. Then the specification of  
the build should be in the image in
  the scriptloader as any other script. So I do not want to really on  
any different process/tools than for 3.9
for coherence principle. I imagine that you understand why.
