Also, this only seems to emphasize the complementary nature of Universes and SM. If, say, Universes would use SM as their "backend-storage" you could have your cake and eat it too: Sets of community-tested packages that are available for one-click install, and "all code ever written for Squeak" available on SM for historical or porting purposes.
I have always viewed a Universe to be "more or less" a sub collection (a list really) of specific *releases* of packages that is collectively maintained by a smaller (smaller than the whole Squeak community - and possibly just being a few people) team.
Given that definition I always felt it could be represented by a new co-maintained SM artifact that is simply just such a list. If I an Giovanni (plus hopefully one or two more?) get around doing SM3 then I suspect we would include such a concept.
