Yes Sean, actually SqueakSource is not really "Share Friendly". I wonder if a solution is not having only one repository for all as Monticello seems to handle branches itself. It seems INRIA will start working on this starting from sept. / oct.
The automatic inbox is a solution too. But it doesn't mean packages will be integrated mainstream. I like public writable repository. I also wonder why SS is free for private repository, should be paying (so it can pay someone to manage / evolve SqueakSource). Laurent On Thu, Aug 19, 2010 at 12:30 AM, Sean P.
