Hi Esteban Looks cool! I haven't had time to test it out in depth yet, but here three questions:
- does it keep memory of which projects are loaded? Is this what you refer to as "managed projects"? - would it make sense to integrate it into Gofer? - any idea about how we go to differentiate "stable" and "unstable" universes for each Pharo version? How does the user know which version is the one he needs for his version of Pharo? Sorry, this is not directly related to the Gofer Project Loader but I think it is the next important step towards a working package management system!
