Congratulations, Roger and crew!  Sounds exciting!

I haven't filed it in yet, but reading the documentation, I was 
curious how you were handling simultaneous edits.

>ObjectWeb is a wiki where the pages are Squeak morphs. ObjectWeb pages are
>created by adding morphs to a PasteUpMorph. So almost anything one can
>create with standard morphs can added to a ObjectWeb page.
>
>ObjectWeb was developed as a course project in an XP workshop at UIUC
>taught by Ralph Johnson and myself, with John Sarkela acting as our XP
>customer. For more information about ObjectWeb see:
>http://wiki.cs.uiuc.edu/cs497rej/ObjectWebOverview.

>ObjectWeb is similar to MuSwiki from Georgia Tech, but with some
>interesting differences. ObjectWeb uses http. As a result one can view gif
>versions of most ObjectWeb pages via html browsers including Scamper. There
>is an ObjectWeb server running at http://objectmanifold.dyndns.org:8888.
>All pages at that site except the CatchMike and FreeCellClientCreate demos
>can be views with a html browser.
>
>We have an ObjectWeb browser running in Netscape & IE using the Squeak
>plugin. It makes Netscape/IE a lot more dynamic. I am headed out of town
>for a week and plan to put the plugin version on the ftp site when I get
>back.
>
>Currently ObjectWeb only runs in Squeak 2.7. Hopefully we can get it ported
>to a more current version of Squeak in the fall.
