oh good ... the new version of `project new` is still under test along 
with a few other doc updates and minor bugfixes and I'll probably 
release another EA in a day or two.

Move the 4 classes to the RouteEvent-Core (use the "Class > move to 
package" menu item) to put the classes into the RouteEvent-Core package 
... at this level it is more about learning the basics of Monticello 
than Metacello ...

This is an alternate approach ... although you do need to create the 
package Route-Event:

   mc create Route-Event

will create the package and then the project list menu items should 
start working

I think this should get you going ...
