So maybe we should stop developing Squeak, then you wouldn't need to dowload anything.
Maybe you could do better ?.
It is always possible to do better. And the idea of why we work on Squeak is to actually do better. If Squeak would be perfect, we would not need to work on it.
Especially 3.9a can not be perfect, as it is, hey, in alpha... it's *supposed* to be buggy. And everyone is happy when you report a bug. Really! Because only then it will be fixed.
But that's not possible if you insult me personaly everytime you find a bug in 3.9a.
Again: the "a" in 3.9a stands for "alpha", which means that we have told you that you will find bugs...
If you think all works , I sorry say not.
No, I don't think that everything works. To repeat again: If everything would work, it would not be *alpha*.
The idea is that people who download the alpha version know that there will be bugs (most people downloading alpha do it actually to help testing it...). And then, when they find bugs, they are kind of happy and report them with good mood (without insulting everyone) so that they can be fixed.
