Re: Build, send and comment on Plugins page

Good idea. Any reason not to maintain the page at Squeak.org in (or
near) the downloads section? I think this would make it easier for
people to find it when they're looking for a download.

Cheers,

It would be a good idea to have that on Squeak.org *too*. The table on
the Pharo website is meant to be for the Pharo distribution. Right now
we use the same VMs, but in the future we will most likely see
differently packaged VMs (different sets of internal plugins).

Also bundled for me refers to everything that comes with a download,
which shouldn't really be a naked VM anyways. So usually you will have
internal plugins and bundled external plugins and additional dlls.
