So, the first set of packages have been uploaded to the 39a project, and I've placed the image I committed them from to http://beta4.com/~avi/Squeak3.9a-Packages.zip (for now - maybe someone could drop this onto box1?). This should make a good starting point for anyone wanting to start feeding some new changes in.
Doug, we should start doing whatever needs to be done with the 3.9a update stream now...
Yes, I'm fiddling around with that now.
So, here are the possible updates that would get us started with the 3.9alpha update stream... (Starting with a fresh Squeak3.8-6665-basic image.)
- Update cs #1: Full Monticello changeset. For now, I'm just using Monticello-ar.245.mcz for this, which is the latest one in the Squeak3.8-Packages iSqueak image, because we want a version that works with MonticelloConfigurations. Or can we just use one of the base Monticello releases such as Monticello-avi.231 ? (Does the Reorg cs depend on a specific Monticello version?)
- Update cs #2: MonticelloConfigurations-ar.17 changeset.
- Update cs #3: Reorganize.3.8-6662.cs (from Andreas)
(Hmmm, what is in the Unnamed cs in the Squeak3.8-Packages image? There's a bunch of changes in there... this is different from the Reorg cs.)
- Update cs #4: The partitioning DoIt cs (from http://source.impara.de -> Projects -> iSqueak -> wiki).
Note that after I do these steps, the list of packages in the Monticello browser is somewhat different than in the Squeak3.8-Packages image, this may need some cleanup? Not sure where Connectors and some of the other packages came from. See attached screenshot.
Part of this is that we just need to set the release repository (to 'http://source.squeakfoundation.org/39a') for the 35 packages. I assume this can be done with a DoIt. (And eventually we should also set master repositories for these packages...)
Hopefully we can do all of this cleanup through updates, so that people can continue to follow the update stream from a 3.8 final image if they want. Otherwise, we'll have to just tell everyone to download a new 3.9alpha partitioned image, which wouldn't be the end of the world, but it'd be nice to avoid that.
