When I fully joined the squeak community, who was running the release team? Yes it was exactly the same guys as are the pharo team, namely Stef, and Marcus.
booooohhhhh we are the "vilain".....
I didn't say that. I was apparently being told that I shouldn't criticise you because you are the "champions of the new way" and that the old squeak days were far worse. When in actual fact from my perspective the old old squeak days are irrelevant (I was using ST/X) and the recent-old squeak days were run by you, so you are not "champions of a new way" after all, you are champions of "your way", which is the same way that you did 3.9, but with less stake holders. I am not saying that "your way" is villainous. I am saying that it is a complete straw man to use the "old old ways" of the past to justify how wonderful "your way" is, when actually "your present way" is just the same, Keith
