Thank you, Dale. That's an excellent summary and very helpful.

Right now, I've been using SS3 because it's clear how to set up. On
Smalltalkhub, it's unclear to me how to make a project private, although I
keep hearing it can be done. I've just not seen instruction on how to do
it, and the project setup page doesn't have an option for it. SS3 also has
the source browser, which is useful.

I have a github account and I'll have to look into using Git with
Monticello and see how that works.

Mark
