Hi,
There are two changesets waiting for integrating in 1.4 that have serious
consequences:
- Ephemerons. The VM level changes are in the Cog VMs build on Jenkins, but
have not
been integrated in the VMMaker codebase.
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=4265
- Finalization code checks for #hasNewFinalization
This is true in the current VMs build in Jenkins, but in older VMs this is
not in.
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=4483
There are two options:
a) integrate in
b) not integrate it
a) means that the image runs on older VMs, too.
b) means we accept that we can never improve anything for real.
There will be more changes coming... e.g. imagine we have a Vector Graphics
Canvas
as some point next year... what will we do? use it or not use it to stay
compatible?
