      <p>Hi all --</p>
      <p>The upcoming release of the OpenSmalltalk VM is looking good.
        The current release candidate (OSVM Version 2026) looks good, we
        will most likely get one more soon.</p>
      <p>Around fall last year, I volunteered to oversee the next Squeak
        release. I would like to propose a schedule the move things
        foreward:</p>
      <p>- Feature Freeze on <b>March 25</b> (i.e., Squeak 6.1 beta)<br>
        - Code Freeze on <b>April 10</b> (i.e., Squeak 6.1 rc1, rc2,
        rc3, ...)</p>
      <p>Then we will see how many release candidates we need to decide
        on the final version and open up Trunk development again, which
        will likely be &quot;Squeak 7.0 alpha&quot;. Hopefully before end of
        April.</p>
      <p>Go ahead and take a look at the current state of affairs right
        now :)</p>

      <p>After the Feature Freeze, we will offer Squeak bundles with the
        then released OSVM. Until then, find the latest release
        candidate &quot;OSVM Version 2026&quot; here:</p>

      <p>If you do not want to think about (new) features or picking
        things from the inbox, you can always start testing for bugs
        now. Please report new bugs here:</p>
