Hi Norbert,
having something integrated into the VM is not necessarily hard.
The pull request of Holger has been accepted fast enough.
So your point is maybe more about delivery of the binary artefacts.
The pharo builds have been broken for some time but are now fixed, thanks to Fabio/Christophe/Clement/Esteban!
I wish we can preserve the green status longer this time.
The question is then about the release cycle which is well too loooonnng...
Continuous integration require GREEN builds, I wish we start using feature branchs and reject half-ready PR
Then stability of head revision (cog) also matters.
Automated tests don't catch all problems.
Changing the garbage collector for example may trigger rare bugs...
Maybe some essential (and limited) patch could be back-ported to well known stable point.
But this can't happen with current ressources...
IOW help is welcome!
Nicolas
