The former BUT I think you need a trunk image, AFAICT 4.2 doesn't have
the newer snapshots of SqueakMap. NOTE: I haven't been involved in Chris
latest stuff, so I am just now looking at it for the first time.
The trunk image I just downloaded has it:
http://ftp.squeak.org/4.3/Squeak4.3alpha-11157.zip
...and I presume that if you do your releases with that one, then they
can of course be installed from a 4.2 image etc.

Neither am I but Chris has made some really nice and important
improvements here and really breathed life into it again! And I know
there is a new web UI in the works.
