Pharo 4 image has just 2 external repos (Pharo + PharoInbox), Pharo 5 has 19 fucking repositories. I don't want to generalize, but how often does an end user care about any of them? For example the only time I interact with Pharo or PharoInbox is when I am fixing issues and I do that from clean image. So my proposal: Why not hide them? There could be a checkbox "[ ] Show system repositories" (default unchecked). That way the window can be much much smaller and users will see what is important for them. Peter
