Hi Peter,

We have been given space for the Squeak Wiki by Georgia Tech. At this 
site, there appears to be many wikis (swiki is a smalltalk powered 
wiki). I would imagine that Georgia Tech would be interested in knowing 
that someone is using their site for spam.  I don't know who to contact, 
but I will forward this message to the main developer site and I'm sure 
someone will know.

Thanks!
