ChangeLog
=========

1 June 2017:
------------

*    ... and now I fixed the problem with real files/symlinks in distribution, it will be fixed in next build.
   
    Turns out it was a problem with the cache of travis for opensmalltalk-vm :)
   
*    Problem in Athens 64bits was with font treatment: Someone was using an +uint+ instead a +void *+ to pass a
    pointer. Of course, this was working fine on 32bits (because sizeof is the same) but is completely wrong on
    64bits.
   
    Anyway, I found it and fixed it on [case: 20099](https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/20099)
   
*    Yesterday after we ask for final testing we spotted two new blocking issues for release:
   
    * Athens was not working on 64bits
    * Distribution packaging were duplicating files insted copying symlink
   
    So, I deferred the release (once again) to next tuesday.
   

31 May 2017:
------------

*    I promoted new stables for [PharoVM](http://files.pharo.org/get-files/60) .
   
    This should fix the black-screen problem on mac and the problem of fast-typing also on mac (but latest
    still needs some test)
   

30 May 2017:
------------

*    I checked a couple of issues on [iceberg](https://github.com/pharo-vcs/iceberg). Still warming up but I got
    to solve at least [one issue](https://github.com/pharo-vcs/iceberg/issues/361), around correctly dealing with
    bad user.name and user.mail properties :)
   
*    I updated the scripts for creating platform distributions to build also 64bits versions, now you have
    also a distribution for 64bits on [mac](http://files.pharo.org/platform/Pharo6.0-64-mac.zip) and on
    [linux](http://files.pharo.org/platform/Pharo6.0-64-linux.zip).
   
*    Back from holidays, I just restored the CI building for Pharo to green :P
   
    Now, to do that release!
   

cheers!
