Hi,
Indeed, I forgot that #selector is doing something else. This is a bit of a mess. Either we revert it today, or we leave it. Otherwise, more projects will adopt the new API only to break again afterwards.

Hi,
Please do not revert the API. Just comment out the deprecation. The code in Moose was already updated to the new API and I presume other projects might be in the same situation.
Cheers, Doru

Changing the API without a deprecation phase is bad. This kind of breaking change without warning is something companies can fear. This is even more important when there is such a dangerous change. #selector is still here but do something different⦠This is bad to just change it in one go.
Maybe some projects updated but most companies do not follow the development version of Pharo.
