Stan, I am afraid I am not understanding you perfectly. Sorry if that's the
case. The question is "how to have your image 1.0 updated up to date?"
There are two things:

1) All the issues/fixes for EXTERNAL packages, will be comited in external
repositories. Once a month, more or less, a new Pharo (dev and web) image is
generated. That image is build with the latests version of the external
packages (and the latest PharoCore image), thus it should contain the fixes
(if there were).

2) All the issues/fixes that are INTERNAL to Pharo (pharo core) will be
release us a number (ej 10599) and will be put in the "update stream". This
mean you will be able to do  mouse click -> "System" -> "software update"
and get that latest version.

But I am not sure about this as I remember a change Damien wanted to do so
that the "software update" also updates the external packages (not only
core).

Do you know which is the state damien?

I hope I don't confuse you even more hahaha.

Kind regards,

Mariano
