> For any given cofiguration, how does one know which version to load? Ok, now I think I got what you meant with your question. This question is difficult to answer as it doesn't depends on Metacello. If you want to know which version exactly to load of a particular project, then you need to know about that project or ask the developers/maintainers. It is not a Metacello responsibility. If the person who writes the Configuration is cool, it will put the whole changes/changelog in the #description: of the version method. So that you can at least read it. On the other hand, there are also the blessings. For example, if you are just a user, I would download the last stable release. You can choose also the last beta, or whatever. If you are a developer, you may want to download the latest, even if it is in development. For all these cases, Metacello helps you with methods like lastVersion, etc. Finally, as I said, it doesn't depends too much in the tool. The same question you ask, apply to Universes, SqueakMap or whatever. In all of them you have different versions. And which version to load depends on the project and on the user (what do you want to do with it).
