Hi all,

I'm pleased to announce, that the experimental version of Open Croquet for
Squeak (https://blog.krestianstvo.org/en/open-croquet-for-squeak-6/) is now
updated to the recent Squeak 5.2 (32bit)
<http://files.squeak.org/5.2/Squeak5.2-18225-32bit>.
This update includes critical FIX for the Croquet's IslandReader, which is
related to the new Squeak image segment loader code.
The included Croquet demos have become usable in network scenarios, but
with some requirements: For replication to work, a participant must run a
Master of the selected demo at least once on its image (for example doing:
CroquetMaster new openInWorld). Then that participant could connect to any
running Master on a network (for example doing: CroquetParticipant new
openInWorld).  In the future updates this will be fixed.

*How to use it on the network:*

If Master wanted to be discoverable, it's network address must be specified
here:
CroquetHarness dispatcherAddress.
Participant should specify a Master's network address here:
CroquetHarness defaultBroadcaster.

Here is the screenshot of one Master (on macOS) and two Participants (on
Windows and macOS) collaborating together.
