Folks -
To summarize some of the discussion on IRC, here is a step-by-step guide for how to contribute to 3.11:
1. Report an issue at http://bugs.squeak.org/
2. If you have a fix/patch attach it to the bug report
3. Add an installer script to the notes, like here: (for more options see http://installer.pbwiki.com/Installer#Mantis)
"fix begin" Installer mantis bug: 1234 fix: 'FixTheBug.cs'. "fix end"
4. Test your fix:
Installer mantis ensureFix: 1234
5. To propose this fix as a candidate for 3.11: a) Obtain "developer" status on Mantis. You can do this by mailing box-admins@lists.squeakfoundation.org. b) Update the issue and set the "Status" field to "testing" c) Update the issue and set "Fixed in Version" field to "3.11" This field is only accessible in the "advanced" view, so if you do not see it you need to change to the "advanced" view by clicking on "view advanced" or "update advanced" in the top right.
6. Load all the fixes with testing status: (Installer mantis bugsAll select:[:bug| ((bug status = 'testing' or:[bug status = 'resolved']) and:[bug fixedIn = '3.11']]) do:[:bug| bug ensureFix].
7. Rinse and repeat.
Cheers, - Andreas
Hi Andreas,
I assume that these step-by-step instructions for contributing to 3.11 are still valid since you referred to them in a recent mail on another mailing list. What I always wanted to know - and never dared to ask ;-) - is: What image from ftp.squeak.org should one start from? Squeak3.10.2-7179-basic, or one of the imgages in 3.11?
Cheers, Bernhard

Fixes on mantis are targeted at existing releases, so Squeak3.10.2-7179 is fine. The starting point of the 3.11 build process will be 3.10-build which is a 3.10 image with additional tools loaded, available in the 3.11 directory.

Hi Keith,
Thanks for the fast response. I took the Squeak3.10.2-7179-basic.image and tried the following:
(Installer mantis bugsAll select:[:bug| ((bug status = 'testing' or:[bug status = 'resolved']) and:[bug fixedIn = '3.11']]) do:[:bug| bug ensureFix].
However, that does not work because neither #bugsAll nor #fixedIn seem to exist in that image. Any idea?
Cheers, Bernhard

You will need to upgrade Installer first.
Installer squeaksource project: 'Installer'; install: 'Installer-Core'. Installer upgrade.
