can be moved over time. Perhaps even on different servers. So, the

to be moved will be the <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.squeak.org">www.squeak.org</a> image, which will be a
Seaside image. The old design of <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.squeak.org">www.squeak.org</a> will be retired in
favor of a very small website emphasizing the download of Squeak.
The site will then grow into a fuller and more complete resource
over time</p>
