Hi Dave,
Thanks for the explanation. It helps to understand things knowing what others see when they log in. I'm glad everyone can easily download the project.

Hi Dave,
Maybe you can answer a few questions for me. When I look at the Monticello "Registration" information of other projects they have the "user" and "password" fields as blank or 'squeak'. My projects have "user" as 'LL'. I'm not sure how they got this way, I expect it was filled in and I just went with it. Does this mean anything? Does it make it harder for people to download the project? Should I change it?
Hi Lou,
Your project setup looks fine to me. People can see your files and load them without any user or password, and only you (LL) and save new versions into your repositories.
I think that (as you say) the user LL that you see is a convenience. For comparison, when I look at your project through the web interface, I see this if I am not logged in to squeaksource:
MCHttpRepository location: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/ClockCalendarMorphs' user: '' password: ''
After I log in as dtl, it looks like this:
MCHttpRepository location: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/ClockCalendarMorphs' user: 'dtl' password: ''
So indeed it looks like a convenience, so that if I cut and paste that registration information into a Monticello browser in my image, it will already have my user initials.
