I have installed it fine now - I think the message is less ambiguous if the 
latest Pharo, is called the “latest Pharo 7” - thats where my confusion was.

Is it worth reporting any bugs with this version in 6.1? I got an error dialog 
that was telling me about the project I was trying to load already existing on 
my disk - however the window is too small and so you don’t see that there is a 
Debug/Ignore button way off to the right (you have to stretch the dialog to see 
them).

I also wonder if we are trying to be too clever with how you specify a 
Gitlab/Github project - both those sites have a little button you click to copy 
the full url of the project you want to clone - we are now asking people to not 
use that, but instead to copy the name of the project (which is typically the 
title Text above that url and copy button). This is very different from how 
every tool I use works and is a bit confusing.
