That's a good idea. A super-simple in-image wiki that could then
export the documentation as HTML. Perhaps for 2.1.

Of course. The process is a little awkward because of the lack of a
network-accessible repository. I'll make a repository file available
so people can load the Monticello project, and you can send me
contributions as mcr files. I'll integrate the contributions and
repost the master repository.

Yes, both .st files are fileouts from an MC2 snapshot. There should be
timestamps... I'll consider this the first bug report.

Well, I do want to make the docs available on the net, but I actually
quite like this form of distribution. I think its important to give
people a little more context than we usually do with Squeak dev tools.
For those of us already active in the squeak community, it's pretty
easy to find stuff - squeaksource, squeakmap, the wiki and ask
questions on this list. For everyone else, it's far from obvious, and
I like the idea of a single download that has everything you need to
get started.
