I don't see anything at all that takes me to the MCVersionInfo corresponding to a version in the versions browser. Am I missing something?
No. The "system" is. As I understand it, the only way to locate an MC package version containing the first occurrence of a specific method version is to search versions of the MC package in a repository. One at least knows
If you're doing it manually like that, paging through the in-memory ancestry history (via the "History" button) is much faster than opening versions in the repository.
that the commit date of the MC package is >= the date of the version. One needs to compare two MC packages and verify that the method version doesn't exist in the first and does exit in the second. I've done this manually enough to know that it should be automated ;-)
It was automated, many moons ago. I use this almost every day.

Either we need to fix alphabeticTabs to re-convert the String to a collection, or rescind the change to Character>to:. It would help if the rationale for that change were known.
The fix is easy, just replace the line causing the bug with this:
tabLabels := ($a to: $z) collect: [:ch | ch asString] as:
OrderedCollection.
I can't commit now, so please do it.
I had already sent a fix like that to Frank - since he's tearing up the system right now and I'm a bit occupied with Scratch modernisation - but I'm not convinced it is better than making $a to: $z go back to returning an Array. I *know* a String is kinda-sorta an array of characters - but I want to be assured that the change didn't bugger up any other methods as a side-effect. Why was it done? What efforts to ensure it didn't screw things were made?
