Hi Esteban,

Is there a chance to have a fully working SDL2? (remember that conflicting issue with main window)

I am just curious :)

Cheers,

Alex

Hello,

This are the pending issues for release Pharo 6.0:

VM:
===
- NEW: there is a problem with latest VM and primitiveFindSubstring that needs to be fixed.
- make all tests pass (there are still some failing tests when compiling a new VM).
- libgit2: Still not there, Jan and Ben were trying and sent some suggestions but I still didn���t had the time to test it.

=====
- iceberg hit the image

Fixed last week:
---------------------

- win32, cairo fonts problem
- leak revision by Pavel
(and of course several issues not mentioned in the list).

Next:
- Make the release!
- Test the new process and tape some videos explaining how we will contribute with a bootstrapped process using github :)

By the way��� this is a list we have to accomplish in order to make a release (so you know our pain):

- Prepare release notes
Image:
- add welcome browser
- generate PharoV60.sources
- move SystemVersion
- prepare new ScriptLoader70 package (in theory, this will not needed anymore but better to have it as a backup :P)
VM:
- stable for 6.0 release
WebSite:
- Update index
- Update download page
Infrastructure:
- ZeroConf: Open new 7.0 development
- SmalltalkCI: Open new 7.0 development
- Create platform stable versions
- Jenkins: move all CI projects to Pharo 7.0 (again some will not needed anymore, notable those moved to travis, but still)
- And talking about travis: prepare all new process on github/travis/appveyor
Pub:
- announce post
- announce mail
- post to YC, Reddit

��� and I���m sure I���m forgetting a lot more I will remember in the process of making the release.

(which is one of the reasons why we do not have ���more releases in a year���)

Anyway, do not despair��� we are almost there!

cheers!
Esteban
