Hello

this could actually mean either

1) Squeak is in maintenance mode. This is OK as it is a kernel where
people build one.
2) As other efforts are going on (Pharo, Cuis, Spoon, Amber) it would
be a good time to focus on something specific for the next year.

P.S. Any news about the new version OmniBrowser for Squeak?
