[ANN] 3.9 gamma (7056) is ready

Hi guys

We are happy to announce that the bugs with the source code is now  
really fixed and covered by tests
(pay attention that we had to regenerate the sources again).

Thanks marcus and adrian. We removed the 7055 from the server. And  
there is only now 7056.
If you want to do the update do it from 7053. Please remove all the  
previous 39 sources and let us know.

Stef

Hi,

We should call it the ESUG release, since it has been done here at  
Prague :-)
BTW, Stéf was so tired yesterday that he forgot to mention that this  
is the final 3.9.

I'm making this announce though I wasn't involved in the integration  
process. But, the final built and tests were done in the hotel room  
I'm sharing with Stéf and Serge. Marcus, Adrian,
Thorsten, and Bernhard were there too. The room was a bit crowded :-)

Thanks to all people who participate to 3.9.

Hi!

It's been a rocky road but you pulled through and now we all have a nice
fresh piece of image that we can jump onto. It is a psychological
important step - a release. Even though it probably still has a bunch of
problems/bugs or whatever - we now have a common baseline that we can
grab and try to move into.

Again, thanks for all your hard work - bring out the champagne and let's
have fun! I will try to verify some of my packages in 3.9 ASAP.

regards, Göran

PS. For the next release, whatever its number - we should probably try
to spread the workload in some way. I know - it is note easy, and we did
try it for 3.9 with teams etc. But perhaps a bit of community
coordination and prodding is all we need to finally get those stewarding
teams rolling a bit more. But at the end of the day we probably still
will need a dedicated release team - hard to avoid - but the next
release could then perhaps be made smaller in scope.

Hi,

thank you very much for this release. There are some minor problems however:

- there are still MacOS files in the archive (__MACOSX and .DS_Store)
- preopened workspaces contains 'Here is the beta version of 3.9' and
'Welcome to the final gamma version of 3.9 of 29 of August 2006'.
- there is a space missing in: '- creating new cool products,
frameworks, applicationsin squeak'
- not sure but I think that in 'all the persons that participated',
'that' should be replaced by 'who'
- The map of SqueakMap should be updated
- After being updated, SqueakMap offers the following upgrades
     - SUnit 3.1.6->3.1.33
     - SqueakMap2 loader 1.05->1.06


Thanks

This is a little like the Thumbs.db files I find in a lot of zip  
files done on Windows. it's OS dependent, the only way I know of to  
avoid it is to create the archive via the unix command line.

Congratulations all.

And how does one get this again?  Someone told me how to FTP it but I can't
find the
mail and neither hotmail nor the message list archives (afaik) have a search
capability to
look for it. :(

Point your web browser to:

I run all tests in 7056. Here is the result:

2157 run, 2108 passes, 2 expected failures, 28 failures, 19 errors, 0  
unexpected passes

We may do a 3.9.1 release in a week and fix some final bugs.

Thank you very much.  I had done some work in the previous 3.9 image, but I
took this
opportunity to figure out how to upgrade pier and co from monticello, and
then just file my
changes back in.

Seems to be working great.  I don't know if I did it right, but things that
didn't work on
Pier before (settings and environment) seem to be fixed so I guess I'm good
to go. :)

Once you get used to this warn feeling it is difficult to do without.  
So really do the experience :)

Should update the ftp archive and download links ?

but we can consider it as stable now.
We will do

I'm always confused with SqueakMap status

Thanks - I admire the GUI changes in 3.9; from the first glance there
was no going back to 3.8.

Question: if I've already build my own dev environment in 7055, is  
there a
way to back up to 7053 in that image, and update from there?  Or do I  
need
to rebuild from scratch?

Thanks - and congrats on the spiffy new version (3.9)
Jay
