Göran, please post your packaging procedure.

I've been playing with Comanche.  Real cool.  I've modified a few simple 
demos but I'm having trouble getting the turtle demo to work - the demo is 
documented at http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/swiki/7

When I submit the form I get "Cannot find server or DNS Error". Do you know 
any other good Comanche demos for processing a form submission?
