Hi Sebastian,

I feel your pain :)

we are aiming to focus Pharo 4 in “modularisation and tools”, to enhance what 
we have currently. 
Now… one of the biggest problems we have is that people is so used to the old 
tools that they don’t even realise that we can do a lot better. And most 
possible some people will react violently to any change… but well, we will do 
it anyway, with your help. 
Let’s all together build a better IDE for the future :)

Esteban
