I deleted the topic branch from the git repo (it was at c8487c61a760a5dc2844e02312920e795b2f0ba7 which is part of master, so no information was lost).
I've also rebased the package-system branch on the git repo (so, delete it before you pull it again, or rebase it). I don't expect you to merge it before the 3.0.3 release, but it would be nice to have it merged right afterwards: it's additive stuff, no one should notice. > My intention is to release this as 3.0.3 in the next few days, but I > would like to make it available for people to play with first. > > I'm of course happy for you all to run the test suite on your own > machines and implementations (contact me if you need help setting this > up), but even more, I'd be obliged if you were to test this on your own > systems (again, ask for advice if you need help setting up to do this). > I'd particularly urge you to try this on systems where you have made > your own extensions (new component or operation classes), or where you > reach out into the environment to do something else (e.g., run "make" or > the C compiler for FFI).
