I'll cc the box-admins: How about we give people personal directories on squeak.org for such experiments, e.g. squeak.org/~edc ?

OK, first did you mean
http://ftp.squeak.org/users/edgardec/ ftp//ftp.squeak.org/users/edgardec/
(examples, these don't actually exist today)
or some similar thing? I mean, you don't mean just having a personal account?
Anyway, I'll assume that. In fact we have 2 things that are similar but not exactly this
1. http://ftp.squeak.org/various_images/
in fact Edgar is the primary user of this:
http://ftp.squeak.org/various_images/FunSqueak/ http://ftp.squeak.org/various_images/SqueakLight/
The idea is that the web-team manages this and uploads the files for you and at the same times manages the 'Pre-configured images' section of
http://www.squeak.org/Download/
This can be requested by asking the web-team.
2. Alternately any user account can be setup (ask me) and use
http://users.squeak.org/~kencausey/ (for example)
What this lacks is FTP support.
We have to be a little careful with this, I'm not inclined to give just anyone login access to the server at this point and we don't have a lot of diskspace to allocate either. But I could certainly accommodate a few people who can control themselves. ;)
