Hi JP, This is not an easy question. There are a number of things that you need to consider. First you need to decide how secure the update needs to be. If you are not worried about security then you have a much easier job and many more options. In general Squeak is not secure, but it is also not less secure then many other tools that are sent to end users.
So first answer some questions. Is your system likely to be used by people that are interested in cracking the system? Does your system have access to network facilities that attach to other installations of your system? Are you concerned that someone might try to build a patch and upload that code to your system installations? (i.e. spyware, worms, viruses) Are you trying to prevent users from using features of your system without authorization? (i.e. Try before you buy?) There are no easy answers but I do believe it is a very interesting discussion.
