I'd like to take a look at Maui but I can't seem to do so. My image  
(a clean 3.8-6667full) appears to have Maui installed since when I  
open SqueakMap, it doesn't give me an install option and the package  
has no arrow, which the docs say means I should have it installed in  
the image. But I can't find a class called Maui.

Any suggestions?
