Hi, that Seaside configuration should "work".  I did not run the tests
(don't know how) but I was able to start a server and  build a
rudimentary page using one of the ajax frameworks that rendered and
accepted input..

My question was geared more toward the future of Seaside with Squeak.
Tobias produced a working Metacello script but it required two .mcz's
to be loaded first.  But what repository are those available from so
they can be installed directly into the image?  Those links he
provided are not a MC Repository so, to install Seaside, my
understanding is someone must manually download them to their local
computer, install them one by one, _then_ execute the Metacello
script.  Clearly, the Consume use-case is not satisfied but how can we
rectify that?  I don't have access to the Seaside repositories to copy
those mcz's into it, so do we need a separate repository for them and
future Squeak-specific packages?

For now, I just published the stable-baseline I have for a Seaside
3.0.  My curiosity about what caused some of the previously-working
Metacello scripts to stop working is for  a root-cause analysis to
know whether we could normally meet that "working baseline"
requirement on-going or whether it was just a one-off issue?

I think acting on Dales's suggestion will force these questions too,
so a great place to start.
