Hi all!

So, the time has finally come. :)

SM2 is currently running on anakin.bluefish.se as a beta server. It was
reloaded and migrated with current content of map1.squeakfoundation.org
as of just now.

You can surf in there and play with it:

	http://anakin.bluefish.se/sm

You might need to be patient with the server, it is running multiple
stuff and is just a little shy PII-233.

You should be able to login using your email and one (can't say which,
sorry) of your passwords on SM. Probably the latest used I think.
Otherwise you can ask for it to send it to you.

Then - I have ONLY tested this procedure in 3.7alpha-5548 vanilla but
hopefully it can work in 3.6 vanilla too:

1. Open package loader.
2. Install load script "SqueakMap2". Answer yes to the Monticello
question about some pool dict.
3. Eventually a new package loader will appear, kill the little dialog
with some error - no harm.
4. Well, there you are! Be patient sometimes when loading updates - the
current scheme sometimes takes a lot of time, not sure exactly why yet.

And people... this is BETA stuff. It WILL barf on you. Be kind to me
with the reports. And also remember that everything you do on the server
will get thrown away when the beta period is over -
map1.squeakfoundation.org is still the true master.

Oh, right - I have also not correctly marked the mandatory categories,
so when you make new releases it may look strange. I will fix that
tomorrow.

regards, Göran

PS. There are tons of things I should tell you all but right now I am a
bit tired... :) For example, for building load scripts, look at messages
beginning with #install... in SMSqueakMap.  Exactly how long the beta
period will be depends on how many problems we find.
