Great news, thank you!

> This update includes critical FIX for the Croquet's IslandReader, which is related to the new Squeak image segment loader code. 

Can you explain what the bug was, and what is the fix?

> The included Croquet demos have become usable in network scenarios, but with some requirements: For replication to work, a participant must run a Master of the selected demo at least once on its image (for example doing:  CroquetMaster new openInWorld). Then that participant could connect to any running Master on a network (for example doing: CroquetParticipant new openInWorld).  In the future updates this will be fixed.
