One way to unite the different needs would be site-wide options. For
example, on our server (as on the SqF installation), we can not allow
everyone to create new projects. In contrast, a community server
would allow everyone to do so. So if there was an option to allow
both behaviors, we could have a single code base. Same applies to who
is allowed to delete versions, should non-public projects still be
visible etc. pp.
When hacking on squeak source I try to be not too intrusive, however,
my time to spend on it is limited so I usually opt for the simplest
solution that works for us, which most of the time does not include
configurability.
If someone wants to spend time on a single version to cover
everything, please do! I'll happily merge it into our branch so we'll
be as close to the trunk as possible.
