But if we now would have continued the Full image and made a new version for *every* trivial change, would this scale?

Considering that it already takes 45 Minutes to build Pharo 1.3...

Hi,

The issue is this. The first step Metacello does with a configuration is to go through all versions and reify them. If this step fails, the loading stops.

So, even if you only want to load one specific version, Metacello will still try to reify every version in the configuration. If there is any error, the whole process fails. I am arguing that this is not a wanted behavior :).

I didn't know that :)
And do you/Dale know which other problem can appear while reifying versions? I mean...just to be aware of.

Last question....I remember something about a new way to validate configurations, I think it was using the toolbox. Does someone know how can I validate a configuration and get the results?

Did I explain it better now?

yes :)

Cheers,
Doru
