We are focused on deployment but not the same way. We are the first system that bootstrap a core and can load dependencies on this core. I may have chosen the wrong words, sorry for that. The OPs comments sounded so much like "why don't you have it like VW does" that I couldn't resist ;-)
We have a dependency analyser that is really advanced since it can check that you have message that are not in extension of packages that you use. In January I hope that we will start packaging Applications (versus packaging code), so that people can deploy desktop applications more easily. Sounds like this is another area in which you guys are moving much faster than it looks from the outside.
I don't have enough time to look into Pharo as much as I would and just by reading the mailing lists and just dipping my toes into Pharo from time to time, I sometimes get the impression Pharo is moving so fast I just can't follow. I still am not sure I understand that Git/Iceberg stuff, and that is already old hats for you guys...
Now if people like vikenti wants our support. They should learn how to engage a discussion with us and not just complain :)
That's probably what I wanted to say, but I am a kind person ;-)) Joachim
