>> What would you do?
OK, since you asked, I'll take a shot at it. You're a better programmer
than I am, but I have no shortage of opinions, so...
Autogenerated install scripts are a bad idea. GemTalk Systems SS3 has
them and they always seem slightly wrong to me. I never use them. I
suspect few people do. First, abandon the inclusion of an autogenerated
scripts.
Add a field to the admin page for the project, where the admin can paste
in an install script of some kind. Could be ConfigurationOfXXX, Gofer,
Installer, doesn't matter. This appears in the window where you have
your autogenerated scripts now. The user can copy it into a Workspace.
You're not responsible for any kind of compatibility with Pharo, Squeak,
whatever. It's just a string made publicly available.
C'est la.
I am surer ground asking for what I want. I want you to make the SS3
image available for public download. I want to move the Altitude
squeak.org site I have to Seaside. The Twitter Bootstrap compatibility
is more complete. And it would be better if new images for Squeak
infrastructure could try to be one single framework instead of a
different one for every application. (i.e. Aida, HTTPView2, Seaside, and
Swiki).
Thanks,
Chris
