Hi guys
I would be interesting to understand hese two points: - times repeat changes
There is no change of timesRepeat: in the image (and in the changeset). It has no versions other the _ to := rewrite. Thus there has been no wrong version of timesRepeat: at any point in Pharo.
- hex removal (I do not remember why we removed it).
The only sender of hex: was the method asHTMLColor, in Pharo, this was changed (bf) to not call hex: anymore. I guess this change removed the hex:, as there where no senders.
It seems to have been harvested from this Squeak bugreport:
http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=6936
I personally think the critique we see down is far too harsh. If you had no bugs in 3.9, then this is because you used a stable, released version of 3.9. There is no such version of Pharo yet. If you would have used an unstable version of 3.9, you would have seen bugs, too.
I added a bugreport: http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=309 But I really wonder how people came to the idea that any and each small interation of pharo needs to be bug-free... This reaction of the Squeak community to destroy anyone who dares to make a small mistake (and even calling this a mistake is a stretch) is very strange. One thing to learn in the Squeak community: Talking is good, Doing is bad. I only wonder how one will have a future with that kind of attitude.
