I am clueless, why people eagerly jumping into the boat in one case,
but prefer to stay away from it in another.
Something irrational in this..

The Sake and Bob [1] projects were announced more than a half year
earlier than Metacello, but there are few people who ever took time to
evaluate it (including me).
But sure, why we would need to ever look at it, if we got a new shiny toy?

I have nothing against Metacello project , neither beloved with
Sake/Bob solution(s). I know very little about them.
But if i would need a packaging tool, i'd first consider alternatives
& look for existing tools and evaluate them before jumping with closed
eyes.
