Hello,
I've finally got some breathing space to do some testing. Thought I'd
use VBox, but apparently I can't use my laptop-preload as both host &
guest :-( Don't really want to spend $200-400 for a full retail copy of
windows...
So now I've found anemail exchange
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21topic/comp.lang.rexx/E7rKgcMEdpE>between
LesK and Mark Miesfeld on how to manage multiple concurrent versions of
ooRexx on a single machine. However, the method relies on a windows
installer. Looking at the download page, I see 5.0.0 beta, but only for
ubuntu; 5.0.0 alpha directory does have windows zip. I've downloaded
the zip, but don't see any internal subdirectories, nor installation hints.
Should I install the alpha zip to test existing ooDialog releases
against the new ooRexx? If so, how do I do this in such a way that I
can make use of the multiple concurrent technique. Even if the alpha
build is stale, I'd like to install it even if just to work out the
testing procedures.

Maybe the testing will get me far enough to to start to do some actual
maintnance :-P

Hi Jon,
that is most considerate of you. Yes, I think I have the necessary
authorizations, and otherwise I will ask for them. It would be good
if Terry would adopt the package - officially - and we could all
support him. For me, there no necessity to release the packages
together, but I understand it would be reassuring for some users to
release something that is tested against 5.00. In the long run,
something needs to happen to ooDialog so it does not make ooRexx look
like something from the eighties/nineties. I hope that the work that
Mark Miesfeld and Oliver Sims did does not go to waste; so we need to
focus a bit here to do the right thing. In my opinion, that would be:
- release separate, but tested and as far as possible, at the same time
- work on something new ( that at least introduces a newer look and
feel, and adds modern widgets)
- try to merge into something cross-plaform like the linux
distributions pulled off (X windows/GTK stuff)
do we know any numbers on usage of ooRexx, ooRexx+GUI, ooRexx+Java?
Or would that be too depressing?
best regards,
René.

Hi Rene, Terry
Terry was interested in looking after ooDialog, though at that time
he did not know what was involved.
Terry, are you willing to test the decoupled ooDialog against 5.0?
If so, is Rene's timescale realistic?
It is quite possible that it will not work in which case I think we
just need to mark it as suitable for 4.x releases only (Rick has
told me that he does not know what Mark did to uncouple it).
Rene, I think you have the permissions you need, can you let me know.
I am sending this off the list as it is not my intention to shame
Terry into doing something that he rather tentatively offered and
may have thought better of when he saw what was needed.
thanks both,
Jon

Hi Jon,
I can branch for release and do the necessary things on
SourceForge, and I am sure most of the other active programmers
can do that also. I think the ooDialog package, which was
separated from the main ooRexx package, could be released
independently, but at the same time. As it is for one platform
only, someone familiar with it needs to adopt it - you? I cannot
judge if it works or not, or know how to run test cases. I am
working on getting a windows machine (in fact, I have one VM
image running since yesterday that I need to hook up to Jenkins)
to do builds and tests of it.
Do we have an official adoptor?
best regards,
René.

Hi René,
I'm not sure who amongst the committees has the experience with
svn to 'do' a release. Mark did the last ones and David before
that i think. Also i don't think anyone knows what (if
anything) needs to happen with the independent ooDialog package.

I would still like to assist with the following builds:
ISA - Linux - Ubuntu - 16.04 AMD64
ISA - Linux - Ubuntu - 16.04 I386
ISA - Linux - Ubuntu - 14.04 AMD64
ISA - Linux - Ubuntu - 14.04 I386
ISA - Linux - Ubuntu - 12.04 AMD64
ISA - Linux - Ubuntu - 12.04 I386
I am thankful,
