[Vm-dev] Split sound package -> Cog not loading in last 1.4

[Mariano Martinez Peck]

Hi guys. Cog is not loading anymore in 1.4 because of some classes
depending on Project from the 'Sound' package found in PharoSound repo in
SS. At the beginning I thought to create a separate package
"SoundVMSupport" and put there the needed classes, but I discover that
there are a lot which are needed. And moreover, all of those needed classes
are in the category Sound-Synthesis. The classes problematic (regarding
Project and morphs) are in the other package Sound-Scores. I have just
tried and split the Sound package in two: SoundScores and SoundSynthesis.
Then I changed ConfigurationOfCog to load SoundSynthesis rather than Sound.
That works and I can now build the VM without problems.

I think that the split makes sense even without of the need of Cog. Do you
agree?  If true, I can commit everything.
One of the things I am not sure is how to make sure Sound package is not
used anymore. All I can do is:

a) Put a comment in squeaksource page saying that the packages are now
SoundScores and SoundSynthesis.
b) Create a new baseline and version of ConfigurationOfPharoSound which
reflecs this change
c) Commit a version of everything empty (no single class) to the package
Sound.

Which ones of these should I do ?

Thanks
