I'm confused. Are you saying that you do not want to maintain squeakmap.
May be I do not understand what you imply?

where can we find that?
If I want to include that in the release I should know where it is
and its status.

I know but the problems happen always in labs with students and  
stress :)
I get this walkback that says parsing error.
most of the time I trash the sm folder and relaunch. I will try to be  
more precise
but I'm travelling right now.

Because we got a lot of problems with code comparisons (when you  
integrate
code you do not want to have problems because people used Shout or not).

Ok an error, sorry about that.

Excellent because now we feel a bit orphan :)

I understand.
There is no rush but squeakmap is an important assets of Squeak now
and we got used to it :)
Diego is harvesting his fixes and we are thinking about the  
integration of ned
connectors (but this will not be for now too much overrides).
