[Issue tracker] *Please* look at your old reported issues!

Marcus Denker-4
Hi,

We have 622 open issues. There are *a lot* of old issues that nobody will ever look at.
Please check those that *you* submitted to see what the status is!

If it is just “would be nice”, but not even on a level that you yourself are willing to even
send a mail to the mailing list to get people interested in helping you to push the case
forward, maybe you could think about closing the issue?

Maybe someone asked a question? If you submit an issue and there is a question not answered
for a month, we should close it: How important can it be? Why should *I* spend the time to fix
this issue if *you* are not even willing to answer a question in a minute?

It makes no sense to have lots and lots of issues that are not important even for the submitter.

Another thing is that issues get fixed, subsystems replaced, code removed… and the amazing thing
is that *never* the submitter of the original report closes it, even in these obvious cases.

The issue tracker is not a one way street!

Most of the feedback is "won't fix" or "done in 4.x or 5.x"
All nice but hard to look at as day to day work is in 3.0

This effect will only get worse over time I guess.

Yes, there is not enough man power, we maintain one version back. This means that
everything people backport to Pharo4 will be integrated.

With “indefinite” manpower this might be different, but even then you are in a lot of danger to
reach a point where “maintaining Pharo3” will turn into the same amount of change that is “Pharo4”.

Change is hard.

You have to move, you are missing out on all the nice stuff !

Seriously, I understand that you stay at what you know because things are probably already complex enough, but really upgrading is often easier than you think.

Adding to that: no incentive to move to 4.x or 5.x for that very project.

For my own stuff, this is a different story.

Does this prevent you even from upgrading to 4.0? I use 4.0 every day and have found it very stable.

Is everything okay with Roassal2 config?

I forked my own version at this point and load it via gitfiletree.

I'd have to merge some things back but as I have read that you will move away from trachel to bloc, well, all the html5/svg/js stuff will not work anymore, this may not make sense.

The html export is highly important. Moving to bloc will not move Roassal backward

I think we can close this issue:
https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/4399/deprecate-on-send-to-and-use-when-send-to

We deprecated Announcer>>on:send:to: and Announcer>>on:do: previously.

I know that "bernardo" did many conversions now may be there are some
