I had chat with Matthew today, and he said that he could turn his head back on MC 1.6 for a bit. But he doesn't guarantees that he can spend much time on it, so i asked him first, to write the small report - an overview, which lists the problems its having and in what way they can be solved.
Then, i hope, someone could pick up the task and make it available. Next thing is a clarification about LPF from its respectible developer(s): LPF is an 'MC 1.6' , in terms that its a main tool which provides means to load & install MC 1.6 in *your image*. By *your image* i meant that LPF is not targeted for a particular squeak version or its fork - it attempts to target as many of them as possible. And this means, that LPF (along with MC 1.6) could serve as a common ground for many existing squeak versions and its forks. And this means, in own turn, that it is in our best interests to make it adopted. :) In a future, i suggest to use a better naming for a projects, like LPF, or make name to be more elaborate (like LPF - the MC 1.6 bootstrapper) because its confusing the people up to the point that they don't understand why it is so good to have it. 2009/10/21 Stéphane Ducasse <[email protected]>: > I would love to have that. > I started to migrate some 1.5 code (fast loading) from MC15 to pharo > MC15 but nobody have a look > at the slice I published > > > Stef > >> Hello people, >> >> i'd like to see some answers about the fate of MC 1.6. and its current >> situation. >> >> 1.
