Stef,

As part of his GSoC 2010 project, Germ�n Leiva has been doing some refactoring of this and has some sample code at http://www.squeaksource.com/Environments.html. While it hasn't come as far as I hoped, it does give an interesting insight into some of the relationships between environment, organization, and related things (the Monticello implications were somewhat nontrivial). Although the GSoC is officially over, I expect to be working on this going forward and would like to have a significant discussion with interested parties at ESUG next month. How quickly do you want to solve this? �;-)
