Lukas, if that happened anytime soon it would make my life much easier hehe

Is there a way I could help to give it a boost?

Mariano, the reason I cannot load the package is that it may contain (either
intentionally or not) harmful code. An .st file can contain arbitrary code
that is going to be executed at load time, so it'd be really easy to hack
the image: "Object compile: 'new'!", for instance ;)

The solution you propose looks interesting, but I'm not sure I've completely
understood it. Do you mean to run a new image, send it the project file to
be filed in, have it run the critics on the loaded package, and get the
output back to the original image? If so, that's a solution I've been
thinking of, but it would spend too many resources. Even though I could
always use a very light image, if only 5 users were to be working on the app
at the same time I'm afraid the system would begin to suffer :(

On a second thought, is there some smaller, simpler implementation of the
SmallLint package? I wouldn't need to run all the tests, just a couple of
them: Bugs, Intention Revealing, Miscelaneous and Unnecessary Code, and
actually not even all the tests in these categories.

Thanks a lot, I'm all ears :)

Bernat.
