SmallWiki 0.9.20 is still not stable on squeak, it is not even 
yet announced for squeak. The reason I put it on Squeakmap is, to 
get some help by other people.

So if you want a stable SmallWiki, use the current VW version 
(better wait for 1.0). I will try to keep in sync with the VW 
version (maybe we can reach this with monticello). If you want to 
help me, please do so!

Please keep in mind that I do this work in my rare spare time ... 
like many squeakers :)
