You are right: I create my own problem.
IF I want to live happily in the Squeak ZOO
THEN I use an old version of a webbrowser and play.
(make my choice on the plugin-Table from Squeakland:
http://www.squeakland.org/supported.html)
If I want to live in the world outside the ZOO, for example to make other
people fans of Squeak and Swiki, then I need a tool that can survive in this
cruel world of Bill: correct swiki-uploads and play Squeak-plugin on every
platform.
By the way: B. lost the trial about Java so he wants to kill Java and her
daughters.
Strategy of Squeak in the outside world should be to be as platform
independent as possible,
the prise to pay is a very fat plug-in, so be it....
(By the way(again): Apple did solve the plugin-problem for Quicktime in two
weeks: aren't there people who hate Bill enough to help Squeakland? former
colleagues?
maybe I should make it my email footer:

IIRC, it's more that Microsoft have abandoned (allegedly for security
reasons!) the <embed> tag in favour of some kind of active X control.
Sing along with me:
Microsoft are barking mad, barking mad, barking mad,
Microsoft are barking mad, throw them off your system!

And Netscape!"
WRONG NEWER RELEASES OF NETSCAPE FAIL TOO: See the Squeakland table
