Hi,

In the past, the build of the Full/Dev image was broken most of the time, leading to bugs being discovered
late, bugs not fixed while everyone is using the system and getting bitten by them...

Now the Dev/Full image exactly is a such a thing that has no bottleneck: it's just some load scripts
loading third party tools/libs. Just editing scripts and bug the maintainers. Nothing else to do.

So it should be fixed far faster and much easier than Core, as it can be done in parallel? Right? Right?
Wrong. The only person doing anyting is Mariano... (and me, I fixed 1.2 Full after is was broken an *astonishing*
23 *days* !!!!)

I personally think this really wants to tell us something, but that's just me.

So what we need is people who look at this list:

http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/list?can=2&q=milestone=1.3-DevImage

And *fix* the issues. Fast. I can not. Really not.

Thanks to push Marcus.

What I'm thinking about is that it's a lot of energy to fix stuff about things we don't know. I rarely succeed in fixing something new (but I learn a little more every day :).

I tried to organize a Pharo sprint over internet / IRC for Pharo 1.2 but there was only Guillermo and me (cool indeed). But I continue to think it's a good way to fusion energy and more fun to fix stuff together (not alone).

Fixing bugs is a good way to learn, but easier with other people. So can we have some virtual sprints over Skype or IRC ?
