Hi Damien I can give you an explanation but keith will not like it. Note that I like the ideas that he is pushing and that I started to write a chapter for the next book on installer. - Keith idea that everybody can build its own distribution is not something that everybody like - For example I would like to have a real look at MC1.6 but the message around it is blurry I tried LFP and it broke on me. - I like installer but when I look at the code I would like to refactor it. - There is no document in a nice format that explain why and how (i'm fixing that for installer and I was waiting because I will refactor it else I do not publish the chapter but I did not want to insult keith since this is not the point since I like installer). - unknown is strnage :) - So if you want to help me I would love to have a - Installer code refactored - Installer chapter - Sake (have a look at the code) - Sake Chapter for the book Stef On Sep 26, 2008, at 8:10 AM, Damien Cassou wrote:

I agree with Keith. Sake/Packages have all the features of universes without a GUI but provide an easy way to define your own universe as you did with Seaside and as you want to do with Pharo (just need to create a new subclass IIUC). I don't understand why people don't want to look at this solution (it's not about you Seaside developers, it's about the whole community. Some told me they would stop using my dev-images if I use Sake/Packages without giving any good reason). I hope Keith won't give up.
Bye
