and it'd be helpful for new users not to have to learn two browsers in two
releases...


-1 on code name "summer" since it is winter here in Australia. Also, were you considering the full name being:
 a) only "Summer"
 b) "Pharo Summer"
 c) "Pharo 1.4 Summer"

For (a) and (b) - what happens next summer for a maintenance release of 2.0 ? Another code name could work. For (c), since an ugly number '1.4' is already included, I'd just stay with that as '1.4.1'

Also for consideration with using a code name rather than a version number, the two I know off... Ubuntu - increments each release with a letter of the alphabet, so it is still easy to see the progression. Eclipse - used the code name for the simultaneous release of multiple projects all having separate version numbers. The underlying platform still uses point numbers.


Esteban,

Is Nautilus under any consideration to be the default browser for your summer release at all, or are you firmly committed to OB?
I need to know this to continue updating Pharo By Example for 1.4.

cheers -ben
