alice-teacher Alice 3 build 3.6.0.3 - fix for say/think error

[Melanie Lam]

Hi all,

We have a fix for a Windows bug that Eric described in an earlier email
triggered on some machines when using Say/Think procedures. We hope that
this has not caused too much disruption to your classes.  The build is up on
 https://www.alice.org/get-alice/alice-3/, grab it for Alice 3 or Alice 3
with netbeans plugin. Thanks for your patience and please reach out anytime
to let us know what you may encounter. My name is Melanie, I've just joined
the Alice team. Look forward to interacting more with everyone. Please also
take a minute to join our 'Alice Programming' Facebook group - for both
teachers and students.

Thanks,
Melanie

Here is the description of the error:

It is happening on worlds that use say and think.  It expresses itself
when the play window is run and the error appears when the say or
think bubble goes to disappear.  It then prompts an error window that
does allow people to share it with us that has error info that starts
with the following content:

com.jogamp.opengl.GLException: Method "glDeleteBuffers" not available
at jogamp.opengl.gl4.GL4bcImpl.glDeleteBuffers(GL4bcImpl.java:10228)

Alice will continue to run but the play window will be in a bad state
and other things will happen.
