+HOW TO CONTRIBUTE TO SQUEAK ETOYS
+=================================
+
+0. Set up an image for development
+----------------------------------
+
+Squeak Etoys comes with all the tools you need for development. While
+you can use any Etoys installation for developing, it's usually best to
+start with the latest released Etoys-To-Go. Download it from
+
+	http://squeakland.org/download/
+
+then unzip and run it. It comes with Squeak virtual machines for Linux,
+Windows, and Macintosh computers. Because it is self-contained, it does
+not mess with your regular Etoys installation.
+
+1. Disable the "eToyFriendly" preference
+2. Switch to the hidden unnamed top-level project
+3. Load updates
+4. Save image
+
+The process is demonstrated in this screencast:
