At the expense of sounding selfish, please be sure that I mean no offense nor disrespect. I don't know if anyone has requested this before, but, it would be really nice if you could "search" for a package in squeaksource.
Thanks, Daniel
Hi Daniel,
yes, it has been requested and would be useful for sure. When we implemented SqueakSource we did not think that we will host as many projects ;-). Since we are very busy with other work these months we could not continue working on SqueakSource 2 (we started with a new implementation). If someone likes to help, he is very welcome. The code itself is on SqueakSource with global commit rights as requested by Cees earlier this year (see thread "Re: www.squeaksource.com down ?").

Adrian -
A very useful (and comparadly small) thing to do would be to make projects accessible under a static URL. E.g., to access the Tweak project at Impara I can give people the url http://source.impara.de/Tweak.html instead of people having to wade through pages and pages of stuff before they find some project. This is probably my biggest complaint right now - not searching (since browsing is close enough when I don't need to be very efficient) but *navigating* to a project that you already know is painful. Just try to navigate to the ToolBuilder project on squeaksource.com and consider how much easier it would be if someone could just use http://squeaksource.com/ToolBuilder.html
Also, consider just increasing the number of "entries per page" (projects, members, packages) - the defaults are so low that it is even impossible to use fulltext search (which is a great alternative to having builtin search mechanisms). I think we have bumped this up to 50 entries per page at Impara but it seems even bumping this up to 100 wouldn't be that big of a deal.
Cheers, - Andreas

I've backported my changes to support those project URLs, see attachment. Hopefully I did not forget anything ...

Err, somehow Apple Mail has discovered that Monticello packages are proper zip files, and in attempting to be helpful, added a .zip extension. Please just rename it back ...

Thanks Bert,
I've integrated the changes for the static URL to the projects and updated the server.
For example, the project page of Seaside can be accessed with http:// www.squeaksource.com/Seaside.html now Note, the path is derived from the unique name of the project (the one you use in MC and not the title of the project!).
Cheers, Adrian

Which version is currently running on squeaksource and which one is the new implementation? Is the new one also using seaside2.3? Squeak 3.6 or 3.7?

Hi Rado,
SqueakSource was developed and is running on Squeak 3.7 and Seaside 2.3.2. One of the targets of the new implementation is to move to a newer Seaside version (we started with Seaside 2.5).
