Evolution of the number of classes as a proxy of system clompexity

> Here are the results:
> Squeak release 1.31 : 496   classes
> Squeak release 2.80 : 1283 classes
> Squeak release 3.00 : 1545 classes
> Squeak release 3.90 : 2046 classes
> Squeak release 4.40 : 2218 classes

> Pharo release 1.30   : 3290 classes
> Pharo release 1.40   : 2949 classes
> Pharo release 2.00   : 3250 classes
> Pharo release 3.00   : 3846 classes

> Cuis release 4.2 is smaller than Squeak 1.31!!!
