Okay then. :-) I *think* that Daniel is more or less agreeing with this
now, based on his last message. (At least as far as not adding packages
directly to the update stream.) I will plan on adding the yes/no prompt
with the next batch of updates, should be today or tomorrow.

Sounds good. Btw, I guess the "9" full packages are really 8, because
SUnit was changed to be part of Basic, so it was added directly to the
image. And then there weren't any objections to my proposal to remove
PWS from these Full packages, so I'm going to remove it from the
"upgrade to full" script, and send out a message about it. So, there
are really 7 of these "Squeak official" Full packages for 3.6.
