Hello John,

Thanks for answering that. I was suspecting that client support was a
main reason for backporting. I'm into Squeak and Smalltalk since
version 3.7. That's not so long.
I can't judge over the progression and improvements that Squeak has
made the last couple of years. When version 3.9 was released I had get
to used to the look-and-feel of it. I was wondering if the die hard
Squeakers have, for any reason, a favourite version.

Regards, Has.
