I assume that there is a very good reason why the 'World Menu' and the Button-3 world menu (don't know what else to call it) have different "Project" submenu items.
The World menu has a selection called "projects..."
The world menu (3rd button) has a cascading submenu called "Project"
Both contain 'project' items (like previous, next project) but I don't understand what the logic was by having both of these being similar but not quite the same.
The 'World>>projects...' selection brings up another menu that has the following items, that are all Squeak Project specific:
------------------ save on server save to a different server save project on local file only see if server version is more recent... load project from file... show project hierarchy create new mvc project create new morphic project go to previous project go to next project jump to project... save for future revert revert to saved copy. ------------------
The 'world>>Projects' cascades a submenu that has the following items, and they are not all Squeak Project specific:
------------------ open... windows... previous project jump to project... next project find any file find a project new project make new drawing object catalog object from paste buffer undo <...> view objects hierarchy publish project ------------------
As I mentioned, I'm sure that this was well thought out, but I don't understand the reasoning. Can someone explain it to me? For instance, why items such as "object catalog" in the 'world>>Projects' menu? And, why doesn't "publish project" show up in 'World>>projects...' menu?

I agree, i think some work should be done in order to have more uniform and well thought menus and sub-menus.
I put a project for a group of students in my departement university in order to work in this task. It's not really a big and difficult task and it could help beginners that start to use Squeak.
