tomorrow we will sit with lukas and marcus to see how we can setup an hudson
server
on pur server.

For me I thought that we separate repository so that we can have distributions.

I do not know because I do not foresee the use well.
Gofer for: #Pharo1.0.
Gofer project load: 'FFI'
looks simple to me.
Then if I want to load a specific version
Gofer project defaultVersionFor: 'FFI'
'1.2'
Gofer project load: 'FFI' version: '1.1' if I need the one before 1.2
if it makes sense.
