I also worked with Envy for more than 10 years and after getting used to it (which took a certain time), it was the stable base for my daily work. Now I am learning to work with metacello/monticello. I find myself regularly thinking "hm, in Envy it was ...". I think that taking some of the principles of Envy would make sense.

Alexandre,
I had the same feeling, when I had to use it starting around 1997 in our company :-)
We are now C#'pers, but it is interesting to see, that one item is remembered by all persons in our team from the Smalltalk-epoche in our company in a friendly way: ENVY.
This was the item, which seem to impressed most of the people - especially *after* switching to VS.

Hi Marten,
Frankly speaking, I find Envy way too complicated. I am using it these days and I am really not happy with. If I have to read a book to understand how it works, than there is no way I can teach students on how to use it in a reasonable amount of time. Configuration Map, Application, edition, scratch version and many more are way too many concepts, in my opinion. <marten.vcf>
