Running for the Squeak Board

I'm announcing that I'm running for the Squeak Board.

As many of you know, I'm a Computer Science professor and I use  
Squeak for teaching and Research.  So my main motivators are having a  
system that works that I can use for a research tool, and a system  
that is elegant, that I can use to demonstrate to students what a  
solid OO design should look like.

I've become concerned that Squeak is getting a bit less stable rather  
than more so.  I recently started up an old 3.0 image, and immediatly  
found (a garish colour scheme and) some features that have since  
decayed.  It was _fast_ too!

Of course, I'm not opposed to using Squeak as a platform for  
innovation — in fact, that it how I myself want to use it.  But I  
think that the community effort should be focussed less on bells and  
whistles than on a coherent base layer.
