 There has been enough confusion about this that I have gone ahead and
 reverted MagmaClientLoader, MagmaServerLoader and MagmaTesterLoader
 back to the 1.0 versions.  I'm pretty sure no one is using 1.1 yet so I
 will post here when the second attempt at security has been posted to
 SqueakMap.
 
 Petr, I think most people still using 1.0 because a review of 1.1 has
 determined some adjustments are needed for security.  I am working on
 these adjustments.  In the meantime, you should use 1.0.
 
 Try loading again and you will have the 1.0 versions which do not
 prompt for password.

 PS - the reason it prompts for the password twice; once when the
 #shutDown code is run, it prompts you to save your keyring in case you
 wish to change your password.  The #startUp code has to reload your
 keyring, therefore you must enter your password.
 
 Saving the image runs #shutDown followed by #startUp, which is why you
 were prompted twice.  It has generated sufficient confusion that I am
 looking for a better way to handle this; after all most of the time
 don't want to change the password.
