Breaking Metacello in any version = Not good.
Metacello is very backward compatible but breaking pragma semantics would require a rewrite of many configurations that work okay today
Why? ConfigurationOf~ not collect any pragmas by themselves. They only declare versions by pragmas. And we only need to fix Pharo version of Metacello which is already fork.
Changes to Metacello should be done on metacello-work repository and not only on Pharo. Else we will not be able to load the latest Metacello anymore and we will not have the latest cool features of Dale.
Metacello should not be a fork. yes, we have problems to keep everything in line, but the fact that we have this problems does not means we should declare the exception a rule :) Esteban
