Hi all,

I think that we are all aligned. Stef may be "too strong" in his way of talking, but he raised an issue: we should probably do an iteration on the catalog. And I think we all agree on that?

So, what would be a list of tasks for it? (I copy past what Stef put before)

- Use Metacello API.
Metacello new
  repository: 'zzz'
  configurationOf: 'XXX'
  loadVersion: #'YYY'

This point should is easy. I can open an issue and work on it today.

- Support for Baseline (no idea what it means)

This point requires that we agree on how to publish baselines.
Should we continue providing configurations that point to the baselines? I've read some rants against it.
I know it may be "uncomfortable", but publishing some meta-data in a repository in XXX technology is kind of the same...
We can argue about visibility and smalltalkhub's stability (I've seen new users struggling to create an account and making a satisfactory login), but this can be a separate issue.

- What else?

Now, I also think about what to do with the meta-repo's. Should Pharo7 see MetaRepo for pharo 5 and pharo 6 and pharo 4? or should only see the one for pharo 7?

What about Pharo 6? What are the meta-repo's it is looking for?
