Hi Stef, Markus and everybody.

In 3.9a-7000 the method Object >> adaptedToWorld: is missing. It was in the 
Kernel package, and I could not have removed it. Please open a simple change 
sorter and locate the latest change set. It is MC25. I guess it has the 
latest stuff that was loaded from Monticello packages. Then click on the 
Object class. It has a lot of removed methods, #adaptedToWorld: being the 
first. Most likely these methods were deleted by mistake.

It seems a different version of  Kernel-md.98 was loaded. Or something else 
and equally strange happened. I really can't tell.

Please take a look, and consider rebuilding the 3.9a-7000 image from 
3.9a-6729, loading the stuff step by step, to find out why those methods 
were deleted.

... went to check stuff...

Ok, I found something else. In 3.9a-6728, this method is in the Etoys 
package, not in kernel. This is quite weird, as the version of Etoys in that 
image is also Etoys-md.6. However, if 3.9a-7000 was built from 3.9a-6728 and 
not 3.9a-6729, this explains the deletions.

So, I have some questions:
1) From which version was 3.9a-7000 built?
2) Why 3.9a-6728 and 3.9a-6729 have the same version number of the Etoys 
package and one has the lost method and the other doesn't?
3) Should I publish new versions of the packages, starting from 3.9a-6728 
and not 6729?
4) How should we package maintainer know from which version start to publish 
our packages?
5) Can I help fixing this in some other way?
6) Finally, is there something else I can keep in mind to prevent this kind 
of problems in the future?

Thanks,
Juan Vuletich
