Cool. I was not even aware of that ;)

Yes! Maybe a little extra section of how to commiting with Metacello a Pharo
fix ?  Where you explain about the slice (just a convention), but also about
"required packages", etc. That would be very very cool.

Hi Oscar. I couldn't read it yet, but I will. It is very useful for me
because I am writing the one of Metacello (we are almost in draft) and it is
good to know that there will be a Monticello chapter and what do you see
there.

Thanks

Mariano
