Hi Doru, all
Bloc (and not Block).
It is stored in Smaltalkhub.
MCHttpRepository
location: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/AlainPlantec/Bloc/main'

You can use the world menu to create and switch to a Bloc world
and come back to a Morphic one.
The idea is to clean and deeply redesign everything.
So far, only the basic Morph hierarchy is remade.
We do not have a lot of time to work on it so we progress slowly.
Cheers
Alain
