Looks really good. Before you copy it to the main site (well.. that's my vote anyway) I have comments:
--- Is there a way to open a new window where links go off the squeak.org site? That would be preferable for links for Ruby, Python, etc, to keep people at the squeak site. I don't know how to do that in SmallWiki, though, except use html.
--- (I thought that Squeak was Smalltalk-80 compliant. I didn't know it was "mostly".)
I suggest to not link "language" to the "Smalltalk" page. When I took the link, I thought I was going to learn Squeak's implementation of Smalltalk. That's how the sentence reads to me.
-- Could it be: BitBlt http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/189 and WarpBlt an extension of BitBlt which scales, rotates, and deforms bitmaps in a single pass
--- remove "s" from developments
"Every release includes the complete source code for everything, including developments tools."
--- This is a better link for "image":
http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/1053
for the sentence: "Squeak runs bit-identical images across"

Well, if the intent is to keep the people at the squeak site, I think the simplest thing would be to remove the links. After all, there's nothing to keep them from googling Ruby and Python. Will that be a workable solution?
(I thought that Squeak was Smalltalk-80 compliant. I didn't know it was "mostly".)
Yes, Goran's original word was "largely". I thought "mostly" might read better.
I suggest to not link "language" to the "Smalltalk" page. When I took the link, I thought I was going to learn Squeak's implementation of Smalltalk. That's how the sentence reads to me.
Also, there is a link to "Smalltalk" page on the left side so I went ahead and removed that link.
thanks, Larry Trutter

Nope, I personally want to keep the links. The standard method is to make sure visitors do not leave your site. To do that, authors use
a href="http://www.squeak.org/" target="_blank">Squeak</a>
But, let's not worry about it. No big deal.

I say Great Job! and
"publish"
Others?
The "About" page is now published (the links is left alone for now). Thanks to everyone for their comments!

Hi!
Is there a way to open a new window where links go off the squeak.org site? That would be preferable for links for Ruby, Python, etc, to keep people at the squeak site. I don't know how to do that in SmallWiki, though, except use html.
Well, if the intent is to keep the people at the squeak site, I think the simplest thing would be to remove the links. After all, there's nothing to keep them from googling Ruby and Python. Will that be a workable solution?
Please, please. :) Don't try to force the user - let them be normal links. This is an open source project, lets be the "nice guys". I hate links that open windows and I really think that linking properly is a virtue.
(I thought that Squeak was Smalltalk-80 compliant. I didn't know it was "mostly".)

Yes, btw - that was for two reasons:
1. I am unsure about if Squeak is x3j20 (or Smalltalk-80) "compatible" out of the box.
2. There is no stated goal that Squeak *should* be compliant/compatible with any of these two "standards". For example, when we start using Traits for standard library code then we aren't really Smalltalk-80 anymore.

This is not forcing the user to do anything. I'm glad to keep the links as it is, but it isn't a bad thing or improper, in the least, to open another window.
