That's how Monticello accesses its stuff, directory listings.

That's how humans access stuff.

If you want, we can make an account for you and you can start exploring stuff there :)

Because it is not a repository, but a SqueakSource, ie, a collection of repositories.
you might want to do
`(Installer swasource project: 'MetacelloRepository') basicView`

The one already there.
Please leave it be, I put it there on purpose.
We had a full list of stuff on the http://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/hirschfeld/squeaksource/ page
but I have no time to ensure everything is up to legal requirements when I display stuff publicly.
The shortcut is there to install MCZ-files, IMHO not for exploration.
For Example:
The "Metacello Quick Install" project entry features the following code for installation:
Installer swasource
project: 'SwaUtilities';
addPackage: 'ConfigurationOfMetacello';
install.
"Bootstrap Metacello Preview, using mcz files (#'previewBootstrap' symbolic version"
((Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfMetacello) project version: #'previewBootstrap') load.
Thanks and best regards
