Yes; I've volunteered to coordinate a Squeak Foundation committee for
this. Hopefully, the next release of Flow will be in the main image (or
easily findable/loadable as a "standard module" or whatever that sort of
thing gets called).

I've done that up through July 2001. It looks like the next pass will
be easier...

Thanks!

Yes, but I've only tested on win32 so far (I've tested sockets on win32
and POSIX). Hopefully (again :) all transports of the next release will
get lots of testing on all platforms...
thanks again,
