When seeing this topic I thought what's that all about... anyway if you guys reed well, Squeak is not leaving at all, but just changes from active to not active.
It's a pity and a shame if you look to the reason for doing this, so I do agree with most comments on this.

Anyway good luck squeak and I am sure we speak to you now and then once in a while.
And you can allways send a mail.

Take care,
Fred
