However, I don't defend the "all class names are byte strings" assumption of Fuel. Of course, it could be optimized for such cases, but it should also support other objects...

I'm not sure we should pollute the Pharo website with instructions that should be known by the user. For example, Gentoo users know how to install packages on Gentoo hopefully. We can however add a sentence saying that there are dedicated packages for these platforms. -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm." --Winston Churchill
