Smalltalk Standard Project - A project which is often developed using Smalltalk.
A project for which Smalltalk is a (known) good choice.
Smalltalk Standards Project - Any attempt to improve the capabilities of some other
language/environment, bringing it closer to the highest
level known, to date.
Standard Smalltalk Project - Of all the Smalltalk-related projects, this name refers
to a specific project whose subject is "Standard Smalltalk".
Standard Smalltalks Project - Of all the Smalltalk-related projects, this name refers
to a specific project whose subject is "Standard Smalltalks".
I prefer the third, as the name of a working group.
(The fourth is ok too, as it appears to mean the same thing.)
