Hi Dan (and the rest of the Squeak Gang),
    Well, this is probably far too early to say anythng about it, but I have
been putting together my web site in order to explain what I want to do with
Squeak as well as get some ideas in front of a larger audience for feedback, etc.
This site is definitely under construction with all of the usual disclaimers. :-)
    So, checkout: http://www.users.uswest.net/~rvossler and let me know what
you think.
Cheers, Roger.....
