Yep, very nice. Exactly what I want to see. And my current "attack" is
to establish
some kind of up-to-date meta-catalog so that we can find all these
beatiful modules
and the "subscription profiles" I have been mentioning fits in perfectly
with what
you wrote.

But... "First things first" as they say. And that is to establish the
"minimal meta card".
Perhaps we should complement it with:

Channels: A list of module paths to so called "channel modules" where
updates to the module
can be pulled.

We don't need to describe them since they do that themselves in their
own metacards. :-)

When we have that THEN we need to figure out how we enable a Squeak on a
56k modem
to reasonably synch down that up-to-date catalog for searching. But that
is the next step.
