Nice! Thanks!
EDIT:    at "I know you'd like to see this URL but we have to keep it a secret."

I was wondering who'd be the first to point that out.

Here's an image of how the website will (possibly) look in Scratch 2.0:

Note the new buttons and site sections (like "blog")

I don't like it...

I can't wait... 

And we'll have more work to do on the wiki!

Uh... I'm quite sure that I read somewhere that it was a mockup from several years ago and doesn't have any relevance to Scratch 2.0 
...
WHEEEEEEEE I'M SO EXCITED!!!

This will probably turn into the Scratch version of YouTube's "**** the new layout!"

Told ya...

Is it going to include (get date) and (get time) blocks?  We really could use those...

Changed the Scratch Wiki article on 2.0! Check it out!

Awesome! One small thing I want to mention.  Unfortunately, we can't really run a true full screen mode using the flash player. Flash has built in security that limits the keystrokes that a program can listen for when it's in full screen mode. So if we did make the player true fullscreen, Scratch projects running in it could only use the arrow keys, spacebar, and a few other keys. That means all projects that use the rest of the keys - like WASZ, for example - wouldn't work correctly, which we thought would really suck. 

So our best compromise was to use full-window mode. This means the project will try to make the web browser window bigger, and then fill it up. Not quite fullscreen, but all the keys work - so it seems way better.

Just thought I'd clear that up. 

Hmm. I've developed a web browser with no boarders or bars at all including the form border (Can be turned on and off). Everything is done by the mouse and short cut keys. When 2.0 is released I shall test it out.

For now people who want a bigger java player can use my scratch viewer on my site.

Is mesh going to be in scratch 2.0?

As far as I know, most likely. It may also have features to connect with people around the world without third party software. Currently, mesh plays with local computers or global with third party software.

The development seems to be going good. I can't wait for its release (or a beta release). 
Is there any idea on how the interface will look?

So, now these games can actually connect to people through the internet, all around the world, easily?

I know that Flash can support vector graphics so even if scratch 2.0 does not make vector graphics couldn't it support them?

Ok, so Scratch 2.0 is going to be in the cloud (aka- make scratch projects online with out downloading it) right? that's cool, but will there also be a downloadable version? i don't always have internet access when i feel like making a project...

According to the Scratch 2.0 FAQ, there will be a downloadable version that won't require internet access.

I guess it is ok. I don't quite think that we need a new version, but if the scratch team thinks it is time, then i guess i really have no choice. i am sure that many people will leave after the update, but also many people will come on. Whatever happens, i will have to see. I hope it doesnt turn out to ruin the scratch in general, but i dont think it will. Lets just hope everybody will love it as much as the people that have posted on this forum.

That is great! I also have a question about 2.0. When is a beta version going to be released?
