Well I liked the original location /home/squeaksource, but since I did not
wish to argue about directory's I implemented a configurable #homeDirectory
and set it to where you put the files.  We can change it again but the
'webserver' subdirectory is hard-coded, not configurable, and I do not wish
to make any more code changes in the image at this point, as that would
require me to have to go through the unique and cumbersmoe testing process
for this, yet again.

We can do /srv/sourcesqueakorg/webserver if you want.

I also noticed, that the run-script cd's into the

I'm trying to share a clear plan which would presume follow these numbered
steps in sequence.  Since we have not done the prior steps, I don't know
what this means.  I need clarity, please.
