About V4.4 and versioning

jfabry
Hi all,

I saw the tweet 'Preparing Moose suite 4.4'. Excellent news, I look forward to make a new version of AspectMaps to run on 4.4  :-)

I have one request though: as I dont have that much time to spend on AspectMaps, I cannot keep it 100% up to date with the fast pace that Moose is evolving. So for me, reproducibility of a given version is key. So I downloaded the 4.3 moose suite (one-click) release. This is for me the version in which AspectMaps loads, since it is an official *release*.

But this version *can* *not* be loaded using ConfigurationOfMoose. Hence AspectMaps cannot be loaded completely from source staring with a Pharo 1.2 image, which is a shame, really. (Of the different 4.3.x configurations a number of them break when loading, BTW.)

So my request: it would be cool if for 4.4 there is a version in ConfigurationOfMoose that produces an image identical to what is first released as the 4.4 one-click. For an official release I think this is a reasonable request and an effort worthwhile to consider. If later on, for 'intermediate versions' such configurations are made, this would be a nice extra but I understand that we all have limited time ;-)

Hi Johan,

The reason why it was not done in the past has to do with lack of automation from Metacello. It is probably better now and we will definitely try.

Cheers,
Doru
