All,
We have a number of packages in our project. There is one that is not used anymore and should not get loaded by anybody. Is there a way to delete saved packages from squeak source?

And a unrelated squeak source feature I would like: That the search tool looks at the project description as well as the project name. It's getting hard to find projects at SqueakSource, and project names do not allways reveal what the project is about. Karl

I know there is a way to delete project, but it is only accessible to the admin (Adrian and Lukas). Perhaps you might want to mail them directly.
Cheers, Alexandre

Monticello doesn't provide an easy way to delete versions, for the simple reason that, well, it's a version control system. It's raison d'être is to preserve old versions.
Ron, what's so bad about these versions that you want to erase them from history? Their presence on SqueakSource doesn't imply that people should use them - that would be SqueakMap - and they may be of use in future archeological efforts. Heck, they might be of use in future coding efforts, if you find yourself doing just the right merging.
I'd caution you against deleting the history of your code base without a very good reason. (Which you may indeed have, for all I know.)

The classes were shuffled to other packages. I would think that it would be a good thing to be able to delete a package so that the structure can be properly organized and to make it obvious what to load. Is there a way to rename packages say to add Deprecated-Package?

I only need the one file deleted, since all the classes were moved to a different package.
Done.
P.S. Did you see the request to change the login time out to something greater then 1 minute? That would be nice.
The timeout has always been set to 10 minutes, and I doubled it to 20 minutes now. Let's hope it won't kill the good old solaris machine ...
