Oh, wasn't aware there even was such a list. :)
What is the greater plan for Tweak Vs. Morphic, that is, would we want to have a Squeak version that comes with Tweak instead of MVC+Morphic? I personally would like to see this happen as soon as possible...
Well, now that the proof of concept is complete we can look at the next steps. Personally, I think (partial) victory could be declared once the resulting image has no further obsolete references *AND* can reload and run Morphic/MVC. This mostly means making the basic packages (Kernel, Collections, Graphics, Compiler) Morphic/MVC clean by a) refactoring methods (moving them in extensions) and b) introduce a few required extra abstractions (for PopUpMenu, FITBM, and friends). For the latter, I think that having something like a simple indirection ala "UIManager default confirm: mumble" would be perfectly sufficient.
Yes, such a UIManager pattern was used in Stable Squeak btw - my article describing that is still up: http://anakin.bluefish.se/sqworld
Then, there is still the tools issue. As you may have noticed I haven't put much work into getting the browsers up to par (simply a question of priorities) but having good tool support is crucial. I wonder if I can convince someone to get OmniBrowser or StarBrowser or any of those in Tweak...
Hehe, well - how are the docs? :) I think that may matter.
