How about deleting the broken 'set language' menu entry from TheWorldMenu>>helpMenu that David Lewis patched on Thursday? (*)
It seems misleading to ship with a menu item that does nothing.
Will Squeak 4.4 ship with any localizations, or only in English? If not, then probably it is ok to delete the menu entry and wait for 4.5 to fix the localization regression.
Have fun and thanks for a great imminent release! David
* {'set language...' . {Project. #chooseNaturalLanguage}. as mentioned in http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2012-December/167265....
p.s. I can't find the draft release notes on the mailing list or the swiki. (I guess they aren't in the update stream. If they are, I am afraid I don't know what method shows them.) Could someone post a link for me please?
p.p.s. I am starting to hate 'new compose' in Gmail. squeak-dev moderator please delete the earlier version of this message I sent from an unsubscribed address.

The release notes do actually appear in the update stream, in the sense that the copy in the Welcome Workspaces appears in one of the more recent Morphic updates. (I plan to remove this at some point in 4.5: the Morphic package shouldn't depend on the ReleaseBuilder package.)
But otherwise, if you grab a release candidate from here - http://squeakci.org/job/ReleaseSqueakTrunk/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/targ... - you'll get the release notes. They're deliberately short on detail, just punchy highlights. I think you may have asked for more detail on the Etoys network merge, so maybe you've actually seen them?

Thanks to your hint I found them:
TheWorldMainDockingBar sourceCodeAt: #welcomeToSqueak
Punchy highlights are good.

That wasn't me. That was Gary Dunn.
(I plan to remove this at some point in 4.5: the Morphic package shouldn't depend on the ReleaseBuilder package.)
(You will move it to another trunk package, I hope. Maybe it is my background in text-based languages, but I like to see release notes under source code control, as they are now.)
Have fun! David

They will certainly remain under source code control. I haven't thought how to break that Morphic->ReleaseBuilder dependency, but it feels right for ReleaseBuilder to have the release notes.
