A few questions:

1. Will Scratch 2.0 have the fabled "open web page [   ]" block?

2. Will Scratch 2.0 have the equally fabled "show list {   v}" and "hide list {   v}" blocks?

3. Will Mesh have its much-deserved official release?

4. Will there be any major changes other than Internet capability?


And a few requests:

1. Can the Scratch Team send a message to all users on the day of the official release?

2. Can the Scratch Team post the release date on the site prior to the release?

3. Can the Scratch Team release 1.4.2 with the show/hide list blocks?   

Let's see... Questions first:
1. Probably - or something like it. We're still in the early stages, but one of our design goals is to make Scratch 2.0 more connected to the web.

2. Seems like there is a lot of demand for this. Still too soon to tell, but it's on the list.

3. "Mesh" may not be the official name, but Scratch 2.0 will have some similar functionality. Remember - projects will be both edited and viewed on the web. This makes it much easier to allow them to interact, since they both will be running on the same server.

4. Scratch 2.0 will have a great deal of changes. But we're still in the process of figuring them out.


Requests next:
1. Oh yeah, don't worry - we'll put a banner up.    The release is _at least_ one year away.

2. When we have a release date, we'll let everyone know. There is a ton of work to be done first.

3. Unlikely. If we do make an interim release, it will probably have the same functionality as 1.4, just with a few bug fixes.

Scratch On!

I can't wait for 2.0 D:

Well we will have to ait, its about a year away, at the least...

Sounds great!

What I want are instances of classes.

So you could have tons of bullets on the screen at the same time, for instance.  Also, you could make GH clones using that much more easily.

Interesting... but scratch is supposed to be easy and simple to understand, i dont think introducing classes would be easy to learn.

I have a question.....

If the Scratch 2.0 will be online, does that mean that it will be a lot easier to update, and it will happen more often? Because you're just have to change the flash program on the website to a new one with more blocks, and then done 

This.

Also, what version of flash are you planning to use?

Can't wait till its out!

I don't know if this has been suggested already but I would really like to see a way of exporting to a file type that allows a second application, called Scratch Player or something, to play your finished project full screen, without all the code to distract, or having to upload to the website to play using Java.

theres a Scratch2exe type program, you canf ind it on Jens website. It allows you to play them in presentation mode without all the other parts. Theres also a compiler in BYOB.

Here are a few requests:
1. A system to change sounds to MP3s or somthing like that.- Even better, more supported formats.
2. Facebook inter-connected-ness (I don't know how to say it)
3. A non-block coding option
