Hi!
Just some estimated[1] numbers[2]:
Currently 1013 people are actively subscribed to the squeak-dev mailing list.
Looking at the past year until now about 64 people have posted something at least once per month on average (6% of active subscribers as of today).
The same for the last three months gives 51 people.
So any new Modulesystem or fancy Squeak Map Server gonna change that trend?
BTW, the Google+ Page attracted around 200 people. As with squeak-dev there isn't too much going on.

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?

Squeak is in comatose mode and need non traditional recipes

It's nearing completion. It's feature complete, but there are still a handful of bugs to chase down. And we have to figure out how to distribute it.

Some numbers to compare it against Pharo:
Currently 472 people are actively subscribed to the pharo mailing list.
Looking at the past year until now about 127 people have posted something at least once per month on average (27% of active subscribers as of today).
The same for the last three months gives 99 people.

Anyone cares to adopt that page?
