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"?

Yes, it keeps a list of "managed projects" (with itself as the first one) so it can check for new versions, etc.

- would it make sense to integrate it into Gofer?

I don't know... this is a "mixer" between Gofer and Metacello. If we integrate it with Gofer core, suddenly we wil be creating a new dependence package to add to core (Metacello)... of course, Metacello can be loaded "at first project load" just like now "at first configuration loaded", but I don't know if this is desirable... your choice more than mine :) What will be cool is to include the gofer project loader into PharoDev distributions.

- 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!

No clue... maybe we need to add to Metacello a new "dependence dimension", like "minimum version of distribution"... but Dale can be much more helpful than me in this area.

Cheers,
Esteban
