Rumors of my alien abduction have been exaggerated! ;-}>

Hello, world! I am in the last stages of putting together
a synopsis of the Squeak World Tour first stop and the
code that resulted. Joseph Pelrine has put together some
remarkable tools for semantic analysis of code. There are
a number of clean ups and improvements that others have
contributed as well.

My intentions are to have a compilation of the work done
to date posted before OOPSLA. I will be in attendance,
and will put my shoulder to the effort of helping to
clean up base Squeak.

Profound apologies to all involved for my delays... I have
been through many changes lately, not the least of which
is a new day job. 

Cheers,
[ | ] John Sarkela
