Yeah, it's a student in the current Squeak class.  There is a lot of 
grumbling in that class this term.  We may have required use of the 
MPEG support a little early for such a large (240) class of Squeak 
novices. (See the assignment definition at 
http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/cs2340/1057.  Some of the debate is at 
http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/cs2340/1269)  The server where the class 
Swiki is stored is a Mac which has been as reliable as Minnow this 
term, which hasn't helped with the cheery attitude of the students.

Lex Spoon is the head TA in the class, and he will be teaching the 
class this Summer.  I'll be teaching it again next Fall and Spring 
2002. This term's instructor is a Scheme-r who's trying out Squeak by 
teaching this class, and he's a good guy, but the most vocal students 
(in the class newsgroup, in the Swiki) aren't buying in at all.
