ChangeLog
=========

3 May 2018:
-----------

*    I took some time to polish a long time waiting PR: [https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/1202](https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/1202), which finally
    closed [case: 20878](https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/20878)... and incidentally cleaned up some dependencies with old Compiler we no longer need.
   
    Not bad :)
   
*    I spent last 5 working days working on a change on metacello that I thought it was going to be just a morning.
    Considering murphy's law of estimations, I'm still 5 days early ;)
   
    ... but I'm not done (even if PR is working, you can see it [here](https://github.com/Metacello/metacello/pull/490)),
    I'm waiting for some feedback from Dale (there are some problems on gemstone side and I need help for it).
   
    Anyway. this PR basically makes tonel format available even when declaring +filetree://+ repositories (+filetree://+
    now is just a declaration of "smalltalk format", not binded to +cypress+ as before).
   
    This should provide backward compatibility on baselines (who can still be declared with +github://+ etc. protocol) and
    makes tonel format available up to Pharo 3.0 versions (since it does not depends on iceberg presence anymore).
   

cheers!
