Well the *real* issue here is that VM level fixes just aren't properly tracked and place in the VM or NOT placed in the VM. The process I'm afraid just relies on too many folks remembering to check the bugs, acting on email flows to the vm- dev list or squeak list. What I would propose is say a monthly or even quarterly meeting/ mailing? to co-ordinate the process to a better degree to ensure yes or no this fix is going into the VM.

Of course, a large part of the problem has been that I've been busy for the last while and unable to pay much attention, for which I must apologise. Right now I'm trying to catch up and get things into a good enough state to make it sensible to run a more open repository for VMMaker. Getting answers from the above mentioned people would be a big help. tim -- tim Rowledge; [hidden email]; http://www.rowledge.org/tim Strange OpCodes: APX: Apply Power and eXplode |
