404 Not Found for the 4.6 all in one download

Hi,

There is a typo in the download link the 4.6 all-in-one. Can someone fix it?

On this page: http://squeak.org/downloads/

The link is http://ftp.squeak.org/4.6/Squeak-4.6-All-in-One.zzip
^^^^
But it should be http://ftp.squeak.org/4.6/Squeak-4.6-All-in-One.zip
^^^

Thanks,
Dave

Oops, just noticed that the download link for 4.6 image and changes
(Old Stable (Non-Spur) 4.6-15102) is pointing to the 5.0 download instead,
so that also needs an update.

BTW, I absolutely love this new web site. Fantastic.

It *is* looking pretty damn good, isn’t it?

Of course, I have a couple of typo-level suggestions;

a) on the projects page, in the ‘Scratch’ section I’d like to add something like
“The original Squeak based version is pre-installed on Raspberry Pi (link to www.raspberrypi.org) and the current MIT supported version is implemented in Flash (add boo-hiss sound effects)”

b) the link for ‘STEPS and Frank’ pints to a very interesting list of publications but not to something that would particularly explain STEPS or Frank. Somebody must be able to provide a more appropriate link - and the general list should be pointed to from some other place.

c) the VMMaker section points to a rather dated page on the swiki. Somebody oughta whack the author on the head to get him to update it.

d) the Croquet entry points to openCobalt - perhaps a couple of words explaining the name change would make it less surprising? And if anyone involved is reading, that site could do with an update or two to make it look less cob-webby

e) on the downloads page we could do with an ‘elevator’ explanation of what we mean by ‘Spur’ and ‘non-Spur’, as well as ‘Classic VM’ vs ‘Cog VM’.

f) still on downloads, the linux stuff should probably split between x86 (where you need the 32bit libraries for 64bit releases of linux) and ARM/RaspberryPi where you don’t. And we need to mention that on ARM, the Cog VM’s are only for Spur images. And, dammit, font-awesome still doesn’t have a RaspberryPi icon to use. I +1’d it on their github thingy.

Whack :-)

Hi guys,
I've fixed the links. Sorry about that.
It's a little weird, because the link checking process should have failed before deployment...
Anyway, my MacBook should be repaired next week and then it'll be much easier again to maintain the page.

Thanks for all the feedback and please keep it coming!
I'll try to incorporate it as best as I can or feel free to submit a pull-request at:
https://github.com/squeak-smalltalk/squeak.org

Best,
Fabio
