The complete details of failing test I send several times, so I don't repeat
here.
My point is a final release image , as he said I should do , is on public
use for some time now.
Damien build his last dev on top.
And I don' see http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5934 List of Mantis issues
ready to be included in 3.10 changing from 24 November 2007.
The reasons for not include the still in this page , I send to Ralph.
