Scott mentioned awhile ago that he would be releasing a candidate image for 3.4gamma. I thought it might be helpful to at least have a mention of SqueakMap somewhere in one of the introductory windows of the image.
So, here's a proposed paragraph blurb introducing SqueakMap. I thought it might be best located in the "Welcome to..." window, after the very first section but before the "Morphic" section. (The "*here*" link would be a DoIt link which would execute "TheWorldMenu openPackageLoader".)
Or, it could go in ReadMe.txt or somewhere else, but I think the Welcome window might be best. Feel free to improve the wording, etc.
(In theory, we could also have an introduction to the Guides, but I'm not sure that's as important. There's not really any mention of Squeak Central in the intro windows, anyway.)

<bold>What's new in Squeak 3.4</bold> An exciting feature which has been made available in the 3.4 release is SqueakMap, a package catalog system for Squeak. As of this release, over 100 packages/applications have been added to SqueakMap by members of the Squeak community. You can easily browse and install these packages directly in Squeak by using the SqueakMap Package Loader, which is available from the "open..."/"Package Loader" menu (or, by clicking *here*).
