</div>No. Monticello is a version control system that uses packages calls mcz files.<br>
<br>
Metacello is a configuration management system, so describes how<br>
Monticello packages make up some project.<br>
<br>
If you browse the source of this package -<br>
<a href="http://www.squeaksource.com/MetacelloRepository/ConfigurationOfQuaternion-fbs.4.mcz" target="_blank">http://www.squeaksource.com/MetacelloRepository/ConfigurationOfQuaternion-fbs.4.mcz</a><br>
- you'll see how Nicolas Cellier's Quaternion package is configured.<br>
<br>
For a slightly less trivial example, take a look at<br>
<a href="http://www.squeaksource.com/MetacelloRepository/ConfigurationOfSqueakCheck-fbs.8.mcz" target="_blank">http://www.squeaksource.com/MetacelloRepository/ConfigurationOfSqueakCheck-fbs.8.mcz</a><br>
<br>
Both of these are Monticello packages containing Metacello configurations.<br>
<br>
To install either, load the package into your system and run<br>
"ConfigurationOfQuaternion load" or "ConfigurationOfSqueakCheck load".<br>
That, off the top of my head, ought to be sufficient to load both.<br>
(It'll take a while: both will bootstrap Metacello into your image.)<br>
(If they don't load cleanly, please tell me and I'll fix them!)<br>
