We need for this external package a good communication about changes and versions. This did not happen here. And I am not sure if we maybe already put some changes in pharo 6, that are not at the athens repository. I once considered athens as an important package for the new pharo ui, but the way it is handled now looks more like abandoned. that is the reason why I just put the fix for 20166 in the comment of the bug entry instead of providing a slice / or update the version on the repository. It is ok if we tell hilaire to not just put bugreports on the ml but create a bug report on fogbugz instead. So people can fix/provide a slice and run the validation. But this happend in this case. It is just that we do not get it right to handle this case because it depens on athens. > > People are nice and trying to help now everybody has its own agenda > and we set these "rules" > to avoid that we all lose time.
