Ooops perhaps 'dispose of it' (MVC that is) is too an aggressive a term,
seems I need to reword that. The thought was that MVC should be a separate
project, and a decision is made to file it in and use it. MVC should NOT be
the default offering. We did discuss having a 'kitchen sink' image where
everything lurks to satisfy some developers that require all things ever
created and used past and present. Yes we realize Morphic needs work to make
it pleasant for us old VW programmers to use. I personally doubt MVC will
ever disappear, so don't worry. BTW you are the second Smalltalker to point
this wording out to me, the other fellow button holed me at Camp Smalltalk
Monday night.
