Yes, for most purposes - but SqueakMap actually tries to "map" other
things too - like for example Squeak developers and their dev
initials/emails.

The next (or next next) SqueakMap version will most probably also be
able to catalog images.

So perhaps tweaked:

"- SqueakMap is like freshmeat.net. It is a central directory providing
standardized information primarily about all kinds of downloadable
packages, but also about Squeak developers and other items of interest.
The packages may be uploaded to squeakmap or linked from elsewhere."

Then of course such a short description doesn't explain that in contrast
to freshmeat, SM has a synchronized Morphic client (SqueakMap Package
Loader).
