Sounds good.  I haven't moved to 2.6...my plan was to keep in sync with
the current SqueakMap release.  This is less than ideal since I think a
lot of people start with your base image.  My introductory instructions
indicate a SqeakMap load.  I think I'll add specific version numbers as
well.  Anyway I think I'm going to keep the current version which is
anchorWithUrl:do: until your SM release has the new version.  I'll
change the popup version to use text: which is present in 2.5b8.

I'm going to stay away from Canvas in this tutorial until it's seen a
couple of rounds in the wild ;-)
