[Morphic] Re: What is the status of Curvier and target setting fixes

[Juan Vuletich]

Hi Jerome,

How do you like to be called? Jerome, Peace or wiz?

Well, let's go to business. I've been looking at your contributions at 
http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/5768 . You have really done a lot of 
stuff for Squeak. Thank you!

01-Mantis-0504-CurvierMorph
It seems good, and others have already looked at it. However, this cs 
includes many things that go outside the packages I can publish:
- Collections | SequenceableCollection >> polynomialEval:
- Kernel | Number>>isNonZero
- Kernel | Object>>basicInspect (removed)
- Kernel | Object>>beep (removed)
- Kernel | Object>>beepPrimitive (removed)
- Kernel | Object>>beep: (removed)
- Kernel | Object>>break (source same but rev changed)
- Kernel | Object>>contentsGetz: (removed)
- Kernel | Object>>deprecatedExplanation: (removed)
- Kernel | Object>>deprecated:explanation: (removed)
- Kernel | Object>>doIfNotNil: (removed)
- Kernel | Object>>ifKindOf:thenDo: (removed)
- Kernel | Object>>inspect (removed)
- Kernel | Object>>playSoundNamed: (removed)
I could move Number>>isNonZero to Morphic (as the other implementors). But 
you would need to ask for the inclusion of SequenceableCollection >> 
polynomialEval: to the maintainers of Collections. And you need to ask the 
maintainers of Kernel for all that Object cleanup. If you agree, then I 
could publish all the Morphic stuff.

02-Mantis-0503-TargetSighting
TargetSighter-wiz.005.pr does not load in 3.9a-6705. Is it needed? I believe 
all I should load is PopupThumbnails-wiz.4.cs. Am I right?
It looks ok, but this cs includes many things that go outside the packages I 
can publish:
- Collections | Collection>>roundTo: (removed)
- Graphics | Cursor (Class definition changed)
- Graphics | Cursor class>>initialize (changed)
- Graphics | Cursor class>>initTarget
- Graphics | Cursor class>>target
- Graphics | Point class>>fromUserWithCursor:
- Graphics | Point>>guarded
- Graphics | Point>>scaleTo:
- ST80 | CustomMenu>>startUpWithCaption:at:
- ST80 | CustomMenu>>startUp:withCaption:at:
Collection>>asKownNameMenu is in new project ObjectMenu. Perhaps it could go 
in Morphic?
As all this is required, we should coordinate the publication with the 
maintainers of Graphics and ST80. Could you contact them?

03-Mantis-0652-StarMorph
- StarMorph-wiz.21.cs.gz This one seems to be loaded, except for the 
removals of StarMorph>>oneLessVertex, StarMorph>>oneMoreVertex. Should I 
remove them?
- Star-wiz.4.mcz Moves StarMorph to a new package "Star". I guess this one 
is obsolete, isn't it?
- Kaleido-wiz.5.mcz Pretty cool, but optional.

04-Mantis-1015-SnapView
Very nice! Approved.

05-Mantis-1771-ClickExerciser
Cool. Approved.

06-Mantis-1625-Thumbnails
You understand this much better than me. I trust you.

07-Mantis-1484-TrashHalo
Great!

08-Mantis-1454-ArrowPrototypeFix
This one is already included in 01-Mantis-0504-CurvierMorph

09-Mantis-1347-ListDoubleClick
The only change that goes in a Morphic package here is PluggableListMorph >> 
mouseUp:
I guess I should load and publish it. Do you agree?
The other changes go to the Tools package. You should ask its maintainers.

I will publish new versions of the packages soon. I will include:
04-Mantis-1015-SnapView
05-Mantis-1771-ClickExerciser
06-Mantis-1625-Thumbnails
07-Mantis-1484-TrashHalo
08-Mantis-1454-ArrowPrototypeFix

On the following, I will wait for your answers to my comments:
01-Mantis-0504-CurvierMorph
02-Mantis-0503-TargetSighting
03-Mantis-0652-StarMorph
09-Mantis-1347-ListDoubleClick

02-Mantis-0503-TargetSighting is the only one we would need to coordinate 
with other mainainers to publish everything together.

After publishing the new versions of the packages, I will update Mantis, and 
prepare the new monthly report.

Cheers,
Juan Vuletich
