Marcus:
Don't think I complaining about good stuff like Introduction to Smalltalk ,
I telling what Squeak should have better quality control.
I do my little bit testing and have a buildup working with some of
complaints solved

Avi says something about having different images by different authors.

This is a idea deserving exploring.

We could have a SwitzerlandChoco.image , ArgentineAsado.image or others
flavors somewhere.

And asking again about a free site for putting stuff like this.

Cheers

Edgar
