Hi Stéphane,

I think squeaksourc is not _exactly_ meant for this. I haven't tried, 
but I assume that only maintainers of a package are allowed to commit to 
a squeaksource repository.

And as maintainer/user of a package that's exactly how I want it to be. 
I would not like having just everyone being able to update a package on 
squeaksource.

But a central way to upload non-maintainer changes would be very helpful 
to get fixes done.

Ingo
