I started by providing a Seaside-Magma-Pier image, now instead I can provide a Seaside-Magma-Pier entry in Sake/Packages which will work in any image that the squeak community typically uses. There are people now building one-click Pier images, and one click Seaside images, but this is going back to doing it the old way, and it will not be generally useful, since every major project builds their own image.

Keeping everything in one class was an initial design goal for the purpose of "looking slim" and gaining acceptance. Now that Installer has gained some acceptance it may be time to tidy up the code. I still like the one class feature, but at some point the maintainability will suffer too much. > - There is no document in a nice format that explain why and how > (i'm fixing that for installer Installer has a class comment and this is available on the squeak wiki, and http://installer.pbwiki.com/Installer what more do you want? > and I was waiting because I will refactor it else I do not publish > the chapter but I did not want to > insult keith since this is not the point since I like installer). > - unknown is strnage :) > - So if you want to help me I would love to have a > - Installer code refactored > - Installer chapter > - Sake (have a look at the code) > - Sake Chapter for the book Sounds good to me!

Hi Yann Yann you should - sign the agreement - then explain your commits because else we cannot really guess and this is important that other people can follow and may be contradict you.

:) I'm somehow sad to see all this good energy turned out that way. I'm going over the etoy removal. Marcus do yo have a chance to put back the mneu items windows (a bit cleaned up) and changes (a bit clean up too). Because recovering from changes is important.

I think this is partly not used anymore: now projects are stored to disk, the SqueakPage was from before that, I think. I would remove it.

Damien, Now I'm confused :) If installing Seaside is easy, then the web image is not all that necessary, agreed. With PolyMorph in Pharo, every image gets better. No worries so far. You said "we want one image for Pharo." That is probably a good goal. Will the RB go into Pharo, or will you continue to produce the developer images? Bill Wilhelm K.

With proper selection of browser and (sorry<g>) deactivating eCompletion, I very much enjoy your web image as a starting point. Whether I continue using it will depend on how hard it is to install Polymorph and the RB vs. Seaside and friends. Polymorph is going to be included in all Pharo images so you don't have to worry. RB as been in all my images from the beginning and will continue to be. I think I will stop generating web images for Pharo because we want only one image for Pharo. I will try to find a way to make installing Seaside easy. > Call me demanding, I want it all :) Installer can probably (either now or with some refinement) reduce Polymorph (which appears to be on its way into the Pharo base anyway???) and Seaside to one-liners in a script. Ditto cryptography. Add some lines to load .cs or whatever files I create on my own, and I should be able to download an image, and then run one script that builds the new image. > > I will stop short of asking you to manually keep up with the small releases, as I probably would end up waiting for the October release before building a new image. It would however be great to either reduce what you do to a simple script, or have it aggressively track updates once Pharo is officially released. I'm sorry but I do not understand this paragraph. > >From a gradually decreasing distance at least, Installer looks like it is trying to fill a gap. As always, I would like to see Pharo sprout an ability to apply multiple categories per method; Dolphin has done that from (almost?) the beginning, and it is quite addictive. My point being that however clever, systems that take the one available category to package methods make the restriction all the more obvious. > > I hope that makes some sense.
