Hi guys

Some items would be good to have in pharo like the event cleaning... to bad 
that we cannot collaborate more
but this is like that.

New in Cuis 3.3
-------------------
    * New nice Icon set from Tango (Casey)
        - Most menu options have now a nice icon
    * ContentPack - A clean solution for a problem Squeak had for over a 
decade! (Casey)
        - Manages internal/external resources
        - Allows import / export to enable use of use existing stuff and 
external tools
        - Does not depend on external files for image update
        - Updates done with code (enabling change sets of Monticello 
packages)
        - Avoids cruft accumulation, code for resources is removed after 
update
    * Taskbar for better access to minimized windows (Casey)
    * Multiple selection on text morphs (Thanks Bernhard Pieber and 
Software Generation!)
        - Use ctrl + mouse for multiple selection
        - Do 'Preferences disable: #commandClickOpensHalo' to enable the 
standard Mac gesture for multi-selection (command + mouse)
        - Enhanced senders view: all occurrences of sent message are 
highlighted
    * Cosmetic tweaks in menus and Themes
    * NewTranscript fixes and enhancements (right click menu)
    * New hierarchy of Morphic Windows for tools, builds and handles UI 
and menus; handles keystrokes
        - View / Model separation is now complete
        - Models are now GUI agnostic: they have 25% less methods and no 
references to Morphs
        - Eases having alternate GUI frameworks such as Morphic 3, or 
adapted versions of MVC, Tweak or EToys
    * Object level events cleanup
        - Gone is Model and the DependentsFields classVar in Object
        - Only object event system mechanism is #when:send:to:
    * Deep Models cleanup
    * Big cleanup of copy and friends.
        - #deepCopy eliminated
        - #veryDeepCopy, DeepCopier, #veryDeepInner:, 
#veryDeepFixupWith: eliminated.
        - Use of ReferenceStream for copying object graphs such as Morphs
        - Clients don't need to know object internals to get a good copy
        - copying details in most classes greatly simplified
    * Editor tweaks and enhancements. Code simplification, removed 
several ivars
    * New image shrinking tools: #reduceCuis for building reduced images
    * Support for gigabyte changes and sources files
         - not activated by default, as it needs new Sources file, i.e. 
major version number change
         - Easy to activate if you need it
    * BlockClosure>>#isClean, BlockClosure serialization (for clean 
blocks), enabling use of ReferenceStream for copying objects
    * Many minor Morphic fixes
    * Morphic cleanup. Morph selectors size reduced by 17%, several 
ivars removed, code simplified.
    * Cleanup in Object and other basic classes. Object selectos size 
reduced by 10%
    * FileList refactor

As usual, comments, discussion, bug reports, kudos and donations are all 
welcome!
