Mariano, et.al.,

Seaside30 has so many packages and so many possible _valid_ combinations 
of packages that it didn't make a lot of sense to try to define groups 
for all of the possible combos...

It was decided over a long series of emails to create a 'Base' group 
that was the absolute minimum usable chunk of Seaside.

The 'Core' group was then defined as everything else that came with 
Seaside excluding the tests. Note that the core group includes all of 
the development tools as well...

The 'OneClick' group was added later to match the content of the 
'OneClick' image (which basically excluded the LGPL packages) and 
included many tests.

Now that there are folks who have some real needs it probably makes 
sense to take another look at creating some finer grained groups.

So, if you run the following expression in a Pharo image, with the 
latest ConfigurationOfSeaside30:

   | version  |
   version := ConfigurationOfSeaside30 project
     version: '3.0.3-commonBaseline'.
   ((version packages collect: [:each | each name ]) asSet
     difference: ((version groups detect: [:each |
         each name = 'Base']) includes) asSet)
           reject: [:each | each includesSubString: '-Tests-' ]

You'll get the list of basic packages that are not included in the 
'Base' group and are not test packages:

   'RSS-Core' 'Seaside-InternetExplorer' 'Seaside-Welcome'
   'Seaside-Email' 'Scriptaculous-Core' 'Seaside-Swazoo'
   'Javascript-Core' 'Seaside-Adaptors-Swazoo' 'JQuery-UI'
   'Seaside-Development' 'JQuery-Core' 'Seaside-HTML5'
   'Seaside-Examples' 'Scriptaculous-Components'
   'Seaside-Tools-Web' 'Seaside-Tools-OmniBrowser'
   'Prototype-Core' 'RSS-Examples'

If reasonable groups can be defined for these packages then we can start 
taking a look at the dependencies involved and go from there.

If you want to look at the dependencies of the various packages (without 
parsing configurations), you can try printing the results of expressions 
like the following:

   (ConfigurationOfSeaside30 project version: '3.0.3')
     record: #('Seaside-Tools-OmniBrowser')

You'll get a list of the packages that would have been loaded if you did 
a load and the list is in load order...
