The last time I tried myself it worked (one year ago, I have not
checked if others did load tests in the meantime).

But the fact that you ask about Pier implies that you could load Seaside first?

"Seaside 3.0 http://www.seaside.st"
(Installer ss project: 'MetacelloRepository') install:
'ConfigurationOfSeaside30'.
(Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfSeaside30) load.
(Smalltalk at: #WAPharoServerAdaptorBrowser) open.


The load script for Pier as it is in 'Extending the System' (as of
today Squeak 4.3alpha-11316)

"Pier CMS: http://www.piercms.com"
(Installer ss project: 'MetacelloRepository') install: 'ConfigurationOfPier2'.
(Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfPier2) load.

(Installer lukas project: 'pier2') install: 'Pier-Blog'.
(Installer lukas project: 'pier2') install: 'Pier-Book'.
(Installer lukas project: 'pier2addons') install: 'Pier-Setup'.
(Smalltalk at: #PRDistribution)  new register.

It looks reasonable. So I think this might be a question to ask on the
Seaside list to find out what happened in the meantime.
