Cincom now has a RSS feed for their Public Code Store Repository.
A RSS feed might help future SM Loaders.

_I_ would find it usefull to just know what I have installed so far, but

being able to do something interesting with installed package sure 
wouldn't hurt.

I haven't delved deeply enough into squeak to talk about enhancements, 
but I find usability enhancements much more important. Especially being 
abel to use the keyboard is important to me (you know, I have one of 
them cordless mice, which you really _should_not_ forget to put onto 
their power station during the night ;-)


Kind regards,
