What I would love is a UI for GoferProjectLoader from Esteban. I mean, we
have the apt-get but we need now synaptic :)

And....if we plan to do what I say in the email about Pharo and Metacello,
having something like that is very, VERY useful. From my point of view, even
more than a Metacello browser.

Cheers

Mariano
