Rob:
I read this list, the beginners list, the 3dot list and my private mail .
Until we get momentum and start to put all in Mantis.
As 3.11 or SqueakLightII

I bet you was in a UTF8 system, I have all the OS but until the date all
work is on my older Mac with PowerPC and Tiger.
But as I do with all 3.10, at some point I plan test all in Mac Leopard,
Windows XP, Simply Mepis Linux and when I got the iPod VM , also in the
iPod.
Bet I should start now !

http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6056 is the wiki page, where all news go, and
also the complains.
Fell free to add yours!

This page could be crude read from inside SqueakLight , as you should see in
the Welcome Window.
So, give me the list of your dev and I answer how to load all in
SqueakLight.

I repeat is on the way a "microUniverse" thing, which is working.
I got advice from Ralph and the system now is with no Undeclared , could run
SUnit and have 1500 + green test.
All the reds ones belongs to the Etoys removal, I waiting his advice how to
deal with this red test.
Off course being more modular means some packages now live out of image and
is my task be sure all could be loaded again and from the user point of view
, is the same as run the 3.10 final image.
I plan go until the system loads all any ask the system should load.
So ask.
Only exception could be packages not longer maintained and with some weird
stuff.

I cook FunSqueak and still waiting some ask some FunSqueak  don't run.
What don't means is perfect and fool proof.

So I say I could have 3.11 base non official and 3.11 Full non official.
But no without users complains.

Can I success ? 
Stay tuned. 
TO BE CONTINUATED .....
