Re: [Box-Admins] [squeak-dev] Should I put my unofficial V3 versions of Squeak 5.2 and 5.3 on files.squeak.org?

Moving this to box-admins for assistance. I have a couple of images that I would like to preserve for posterity on files.squeak.org. They can go in a new folder under "various_images" files.squeak.org/various_images/squeak_V3_images/ Can someone on box-admins help me make this happen? I do not have access to the server but I can put the files out on a google drive if that works. I zipped up the files and put them here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wUZa4IHEkaTqzgwR3K1Wcwa9ckb7iVo2/view?usp=… Thanks, Dave On Sat, Jul 25, 2020 at 10:35:22AM -0700, tim Rowledge wrote: > Hard to think of any reason *not* to have them available. > > > On 2020-07-25, at 10:04 AM, David T.
