Hi Marcel,


looks great to me! :-) Here are some notes:


  *   After playing around a few minutes with the fresh image, I got an error message in the Recent Changes.
All I did was 1) to evaluate some code and 2) to select the "startup" line:
[cid:ec69a74b-5a60-4995-8363-e88fba320601]
  *   I took a closer look at [Smalltalk allClasses gather: #classPool] and found the following possibly important entries:
     *   [cid:4342e80a-5ffc-42e9-9fd4-3b633a03659f]
You might want to be even more aggressive when cleaning the Clipboard variables :)
     *   Interestingly, there are still some relicts of The Worlds of Squeak in our 5.3 release candidate:
[cid:5dfbb077-e63e-45fc-a36f-997f065c4c28]
The latter is no problem at all, just an amazing fact I did not want to hide from you :D


And some questions:


  *   Is it intended that the RC still has its update URL set to http://source.squeak.org/trunk and that it does not use HTTPS?
  *   Do we need a nested folder in the ZIP file for Windows? IMHO this makes file paths unnecessarily long (91 characters ...).

Best,
