Hi all
About http://code.google.com/p/pharo/wiki/PackagesTestedInPharo I was wondering if it would not be better to use the Universe mechanism. We could create a Pharo Universe and people could describe that their packages load in Pharo1.0 This would be great and important to get a update to date catalog of what is working in Pharo1.0. What do you think?
I think that this will be discussed by the community at a large. What will be the way to install packages on Pharo. SqueakMap (PharoMap) SqueakSouce (PharoSource) Monticello repos on other site Update stream (this will be for the core anyway) MC1.5, MC1.6, MC2 DeltaStreams SARs A lot of options but we must not replicate the nightmare that squeak has. I personally vote for Monticello and Monticello configuration for a _well know official repo_. This repo will have just the official versions that work/worked with pharo in a given time. The other versions should be stored on personal separated repos, like lukas repo or squeak repo. But let discuss this. Also, I have something against universes, as they force to use just the universe versions of a package and don't play well with separated packages installed from monticello or other (but maybe it is just me that haven't learned to use it well, so if this is so, discard this last part) Miguel Cobá http://miguel.leugim.com.mx
