Stef, I mention this in a Pharo thread but, In GemStone the Transcript entries are also added to the Object log, so the Object log has a long term collection of Transcript entries ... the key would be that Transcript entries should be automatically included in the logging scheme ... so that application code can continue to use the Transcript ...

I have no idea whether this issue has been discussed before, and perhaps even solved, but is there an easy way to configure Metacello logging? Right now in Pharo, it goes into the Transcript, and consequently mixes with Compiler warning and other stuff. When we load ConfigurationOfMoose, there are so many items in the Transcript that we lost the first ones. We have to hack the Transcript to dump the interesting info into a file.

I've done a search through the Pharo and Metacello mailing lists (and my memory ... but only a little of that:) for open issues on Metacello and I've put together the following list:

These issues stand out for me, since I need some whiteboard time to wrap my brain around the requirements and then discuss potential solutions.
I would hope that we can find time at ESUG for discussing these issues and making decisions on as many of the issues as possible (or at least plans of action)...
If anyone else has issues that they think haven't been adequately covered, now would be a good time to bring up the issue (again) for discussion at ESUG ... if you aren't attending ESUG, refreshing the issue for consideration by those who are present is still a good idea.
