And there is another story. Imaging Ruby guys join Pharo development (not real story :)). Many years In Ruby people use mocks and "human should" assertions.
Ruby guys can load the library they prefer. And use it in their projects. I'm no-one to forbid that, and actually I'd encourage it if that is what they want.
And actually this is what they do in Ruby: if they want a library they load it. Why in Pharo it cannot be the same for god's sake??
+1 to this. We should be able to deliver a minimal core, with the basic features to load external packages. The problem, I suspect, is that project discoverability/installation might not be as straightforward as with a ruby gem, but the integrated catalog eases that in a big extent. Regards! -- Esteban.
