But what did you get from the senders of Url>>#toText?
Because indeed Url>>#toText will be removed.
Ok I will check what you did and wait for your agreement :)

Hi list,
I figured I'd explain my commit here, since I don't know how you
handle your issue tracker.
While I was loading some code in my image (Universes iirc), I got a
lot of warnings pop up, about Url>>#toText being deprecated.
After taking a look at it, I saw that the deprecation comment
recommended using instead Url>>#asText. Which I tried, but it broke
most of the SUnits and also the expected behaviour.
Looking at the code, I saw that Url>>#toText simply did ^self
asString, when Url>>#asText does ^self asString asText. The semantic
leap between Text and String is too big (imo) to force that change
on users.
I thought it would be better to replace the deprecation comment to
recommend replacing the obsolote Url>>#toText by Url>>#asString
(which is what this method actually does).
I would rather have removed the method, since it has been marked for
obsolete for more than 3 years now! But I don't know what the
approach is to deleting methods, and how to communicate to people
that this isn't a missing method but an intentional removal.
I hope this helps understand this version.
Cheers,
Yann
