Jesse (and all) -
I located a Word document that is nearly current with the version that appear as the OOPSLA paper. I will happily send it to anyone who is interested. If anyone wants to put it up on a website, that would also be fine provided they get ACM's permission (I'm assuming it's OK with the other authors -- I'll check around if that's what we want to do.

Well, great.

Yes, the original code is still around. It's really messy (lots of workarounds dealing with, eg, double-buffered screen updates in an MVC world hacked to use the Mac Toolbox (!)). But it shouldn't be too hard to sepearate the wheat from the chaff.
I would LOVE to give you a whole list of suggestions, but it's going to take me a while. I really need to focus on completing pass 1 of Squeak Name Spaces, and get 2.7 out the door (I'm hoping early next week). I'll try to send you a quick list in the next day or so, but more will have to wait.
If anyone else responds to me, I'll include you as a recipient.
