Are there any questions that you have about 2.0?

Yes there are, Does anyone know or think, is there going to be an updated version of Desktop Scratch (For Windows or Mac) Available to also download when Scratch 2.0 Finally comes out? Or are we going to have to either just use the Online builder or carry on using the old desktop version of Scratch, Available at the moment?    I'de as well as the Online builder Love a new desktop application for Scratch, No offence of course but the current one looks a bit Windows 98 Style! The rest of Scratch 2.0 Still looks Amazing! Love it!    Carry on Scratching

The Scratch 2.0 FAQ states that there will be a downloadable version...

Cool, This will be even better then, Lets just hope it will be even more exiting and change the downloadable version! Thanks, Joewheeeeler

Why did you say Thanks, Joewheeeeler after your post.

More questions:

1) Is the "clean up scripts" option still available?  If so, can we have a "clean up ALL scripts" function?

2) Will the editor windows ever respond to the mouse scrollwheel?

3) How many active coders do you have working on the codebase?

4) Since this is now in Flash and there are some great "tween" libraries for Flash, will we see some "Tween" blocks?

5) Is there still a way to write out a project summary?

6) Are the variables on the "data" tab listed in alpha order?

7) Are we still going to have the "Next Costume" block?

8) Will the old "Stop Script" blocks be converted when loaded to the new "Stop" block form?

9) How is the performance of a normal speed project with Warp Speed blocks compared to a project without them but running in Turbo Mode?

10) Are you tired of my questions yet?

Not an admin, but here's what I think:

1. a. Yes, b. Dunno
2. Probably
3. Lots
4. Good idea! 
5. Probably. And definitely notes.
6. Dunno. Hopefully not.
7. Yes.
8. Huh?
9. Huh?
10. No, they are good questions. 

There's a warp c in 2.0? I'm so out of this...

Warp in BYOB4.0 is basically an atomic stack.

Please don't answer questions unless you're on the Scratch Team... or you ACTUALLY know the answer.

well, i answer what I know from inspecting the alpha...

1) yes; we can, why not ask them? 
2) they don't yet 
3) not a lot, i guess. probably less the five people.
4) not implemented yet, and seems a bit too complicated for scratch 
5) not implemented yet, hope they do 
6) nope, creation order 
7) they don't have it there 
8) no (yet) but they work at least
9) wrap performed better on my little vars benchmark 
10) well.....

Will we get the option when creating a variable to make it cloud or not cloud? Or perhaps a block that toggles between the two? And has it been set in stone how sharing projects will work, as in public or not public option, or maybe a WIP secton added to your page?

These have probably been answered, but I never saw it.

Yes, you choose when creating the variable. I think that's in the wiki article on cloud data.
And you will be able to hide projects from the public.

Will multiple projects be able to access the same cloud variables?

I hope not. I don't want other projects messing up Leaderboards and such.
But this may be an advantage. eg. Cross Project Chat.

I meant between projects by the same user.

Will there be another preview [close] to the end of August?  (which is now)

That's what I heard...

Uh, it's September.

Do scratch 2.0 gonna have multiplayer support?
And about cloud variables?
