Good question! The little project I was working on when I implemented that
method /was/ using Aconcagua! But:
1. This is a simple, common conversion which
a. could make the kernel itself a bit more intention revealing
Job>>#progress
^ min >= max ifTrue: [ 1 ] ifFalse: [ (currentValue - min) / (max -
min) ]
could become:
^ min >= max ifTrue: [ 100 percent ] ifFalse: [ (currentValue - min) /
(max
- min) ]
b. would've made my life a bit easier on several occasions, but feels much
too lightweight to load a library for. There doesn't seem to be an entire
domain behind it. One method gets you the whole thing.
2. AFAICT, Aconcagua doesn't really solve this problem. It defines families
of units and conversions between them, but here there's just one concept as
mentioned in 1.b. above
