Frank,

For the automated builds, I want to use the latestAvailable download as my test bed, because that's  the scenario I want to test:

  - download image
  - execute Metacello

I have ensured that with the patch Metacello runs against Squeak4.4 so I can wait until the patch gets processed and then turn on my automated builds....

Dale

| Hi Dale,
| 
| The necessary change - Environments-fbs.5 - is sitting in the Inbox
| waiting for review. If it helps, you could always cherry-pick that?
