Hello Tim,
Yes, I had a success on partly restoring of Open Croquet onto Squeak 5.2 ( https://blog.krestianstvo.org/en/open-croquet-for-squeak-6/). Source code is also available on Git, by using Squot https://github.com/NikolaySuslov/croquet-squeak. So, one can run some of the same demos, that historical screenshots could be found at the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Croquet_Project. As for current Squeak 5.3 release, I'm steel in the process of testing Open Croquet on it.
Croquet has already a long history and I thinking, that it is quit important to keep information for all development stages, it is passed through also. Every Croquet version based on Squeak VM/Image pair has it's own unique features worth of exploration.
Also, there are lot of videos on David A. Smith's YouTube channel with Croquet demos from the "future" (https://croquet.studio/), now and the past, like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOZPW8l85eI
Best regards, Nikolai

Whilst looking to improve those screenshot pages on the swiki I found the croquet page (http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2901); not a single one of the external links still works. opencobalt.org and opencroquet.org are gone.
I think the swiki page for 'Croquet on Linux' ( http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2904) is redundant too. Is there anything at all still valid for croquet? Has anyone kept it running in current Squeak?
