[etoys-dev] Monticello-based updates for Etoys

[Hilaire Fernandes]

This great news.

I am try to extract the Etoys Gettext facilities to produce a compatible
layer for Pharo (can be used for squeak) so I can have both DrGeo
translation running in both Etoys and Pharo (Polymorph version of DrGeo). I
will create compatibilitz mcz package for DrGeo to integrate the specific
Etoys viewer and Tiles methods to make DrGeo tiles aware.

Did someone try to load drgeo Monticello package in Etoys?
