you know I guess that I know what is maintenance.
I have problems to understand why this would be not reasonable that people load a give kom version for seaside on squeak and one for seaside on pharo.
Loading is one thing. What bothers we more is the maintenance situation. Let's face it, there are far too resources behind something as important as Kom. Making a fork of it cuts these resources in half.
Maintenance is not doing a quick fix now so that it loads. Maintenance is taking care of something for several years (!) to come, fixing issues as they arrive, being there and responding. Removing time from other activities instead of finding excuses.
So what is your suggestion then because so far the only message we got is that we should not change network because KOM is crappy. So ****concretely**** what can we do. So far you have not been that constructive. If we do not have paths for the future then why Seasiders even think about using Pharo. May be you should get stuck in Squeak and this is ok too. Stef
