I guess it all depends on your point of view. I can imagine that for you a clean minimal core is important as you build your own universe. But for most regular users, more stuff is needed. In practice, the core/dev difference was not optimal for all the reasons given before. I really feel crippled in a core image. And I don't like having to do long builds myself. I switched to 1.3, but I am using your one-click image because I need Seaside and there is no client build in Pharo any more. (Thx, BTW ;-) And yes, I think many Pharo users stay away from the more recent builds (1.4 for sure, but also 1.3) until the dust has settles (meaning, important third party code has been ported). But I also think that bold moves going forward are necessary, else nothing will ever change. Sven
