Hi,
I had a look at the Pharo 7.0 today and see metadata for methods (Author and timestamp) has been removed*, what is the reason for this?
Having the ability to find methods created around the same time and/or by author is quite useful when fixing bugs in the core libraries.
There is also quite a lot of history that is lost as well with this change (I am always impressed when I stumble upon methods over 15-20 years old!).
Could this be reverted, please?
[*] all methods have a stamp, but it is the same for all with only a timestamp from the bootstrap(?).
Best regards,
Henrik
