Colin, Among many useful things in Dolphin is an ability to assign multiple categories to any given method; Squeak and Pharo allow only one category, and it promptly gets chewed up by PackageInfo. Multiple categories would be a nice addition to Squeak and Pharo.
How hard would it be to change Monticello to take its input not from PackageInfo and its (pardon me) abuse of category names, but from reifications of the categories? The new objects would form the basis for packaging system, and free method categories to do what they do best: aid in browsing and understanding code. In transition, a future version of Monticello could create the needed objects using the same rules as PackageInfo (or any time it is instructed to do so). Comments? Bill Wilhelm K.
