As already said several times. For me, we have to:
1) Put ALL our effort and or priority to release the 1.0 stable. This means, try to fix the 1.0 opened fixes.
What is the suggested workflow for those of us who want to work off the stable version, and feedback where we find outstanding issues? I would expect to try out the offending code in a 'patched up to date' version of 1.0, to see if it is reproducable there, in which case a search of open bug reports, and possibly a new bug report, would be in order. Is there an easy way to maintain such an up to date version 1.0, with harvested bug
fixes?
In my opinion, it is easy. If you are a Pharo developer you might want to use 1.1 and code there. If you are just a "user" of pharo, use the 1.0. If there are bugs, just report them following this: http://www.pharo-project.org/community/issue-tracking
And then we see. If the bug is a "1.0 issue" we will try to fix it and integrated. Maybe it is 1.1. But it doesn't care. You should use 1.0 for your applications and report anything you want (issue, feedback, whatever) regardless 1.1 (do as if 1.1 doesn't exist).

Hi Mariano, I suppose my question was mainly about how to keep that 1.0 version up with its current fixes. Is it a question of watching out for a new release on the downloads page.
It would be preferable to pick up all updates (semi)automatically, in which case you know that a bug you hit is still a bug.
I know I have seen bugs such as the one I just logged, but felt they were likely already in the works, or caused by something I'd done. If I can easily keep an image as the 'gold standard' of where a patched up to date image should be, I'm more likely to decide something really is a bug and log it.
Stan, I am afraid I am not understanding you perfectly. Sorry if that's the case. The question is "how to have your image 1.0 updated up to date?" There are two things: 1) All the issues/fixes for EXTERNAL packages, will be comited in external repositories. Once a month, more or less, a new Pharo (dev and web) image is generated. That image is build with the latests version of the external packages (and the latest PharoCore image), thus it should contain the fixes (if there were). 2) All the issues/fixes that are INTERNAL to Pharo (pharo core) will be release us a number (ej 10599) and will be put in the "update stream". This mean you will be able to do mouse click -> "System" -> "software update" and get that latest version. But I am not sure about this as I remember a change Damien wanted to do so that the "software update" also updates the external packages (not only core). Do you know which is the state damien? I hope I don't confuse you even more hahaha. Kind regards, Mariano Cheeers, ...Stan
