Make connecting to C libraries/Java libraries as plainless as possible. Make discovery of available Smalltalk libraries less painful: * There's little or no differentiation on squeaksource between great, well-tested reliable code, and "my first Smalltalk project" * Be great if ESUG sponsored the infrastructure for something like Apache commons (http://commons.apache.org/) for Smalltalk projects. They have three designations: 1) Commons Proper - repository of reusable components 2) Commons Sandbox - workspace for component development 3) Repository of sandbox components that are currently inactive * This would aid in the discovery of projects. * Ideally projects in the equivalent to "commons proper" would be part of a CI system like Lukas' Hudson setup (http://hudson.lukas-renggli.ch/) HTH Nick
