Hi Gary,

You should check with the people at Squeakland,
http://www.squeakland.org/  possibly through their mailing list at
http://lists.squeakland.org/mailman/listinfo/squeakland

They are much more oriented to educational use of Squeak, although
there is a lot of cross-pollination on the developer list too.
