So I have finished the second chapter , but, there is a sub section about Squeaksource which I don't think many people use anymore , will you keep this as it is ? Cause I was thinking maybe deleting that part and talk instead about Smalltalkhub.
For the time being I have ported Squeaksource part as it is.
