Hi all
I have been thinking about the next steps. Here are a list of
propositions for 3.10/4.0 that I would like
to work on and welcome company. Ideally I would like to build a group
of people that have fun to work on these items.
We could even try to have some regular chats one day a week and FUN.
I think that Squeak 10/4 should not be compatible to free us but at
the same time it should prepare the
coming of new assets (sophie/tweak).
Here are the main actions I would like to see happening:
- be able to load Tweak
- be able to load Sophie infrastructural elements (ressource
location...)
=> even substitute current Squeak ones with sophie ones (Rome renderer)
- curve/remove Etoy/projects (without having to reload them)
- remove nebraska and others/ remove packages early in the process
- new compile method format if available else klaus fix for source
limits
- may be newcompiler if ready
- aggressive cleans in a lot of areas
- look at Pavel overrides problems
=> ideally be able to use Pavel image as a basis for 10/4
- Use tool builder (looking at the tool plus) and change the current
tools
(the ones that deserve migration)
- more tests
- may be using MC2 if ready
- better integration of AST and refactoring support
So if you want to help there on a regular basis or on specific items
please say it
Stef
