Correct.

Yes, it would seem to. Frankly, I'm not so hung up on sqdb that I wouldn't
defer to a superior solution. I am of the opinion that the success of any
documentation effort needs to be tightly integrated with the image. The web
portion of my site is there only for support - the primary interfaces are
through XML.
I am very impressed by the SqueakDoc.org effort so far. I would have no
problem shifting my stuff to that site, linking, or mirroring, or whatever.
Perhaps Bernd would like to see what I've done so far and adopt a similar
solution, or take over mine.
I think Scamper is the biggest obstacle to SqueakDoc.org at the moment.
