I heard that you made several braking backward compatibility changes to Bloc, is there a timeline or roadmap when the specification of the API will stabilize so we can use it without the fear of our GUIs stop working because Bloc brakes backward compatibility ?

Hi all
Today is sunday meaning that we should make a monthly report on what happened in Bloc in February.
- BlLinearLayout (stack layout + proportional layout)
- Uses gtExample for examples and tests: BlLinearLayoutExamples - Has extensive class docs and method docs. Still some methods are missing docs. - Has "book" chapter (more info below)
- Integration with OS-Window
- Finally works, really fast. - Events do not work as expected because of https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/17757
- Unified shape scaling behaviour.
- By default shape scales to fill BlElement's extent. - Supports different resizing strategies. - Started "book" chapter
- Added documentation to various parts of Bloc
- Still there are a lot of places not covered with docs. - Also we auto-generate "book" chapters from bloc example classes. In attachment you can find linear-layout and not finished shape chapter.
*Future*
- Bloc presentation on PharoDays2016 <http://pharodays2016.pharo.org>
- 01 April 2016 - 11:05â11:25 Bloc: Towards a vector-based GUI
- Working on
- Grid layout (all rules above apply, docs + tests + chapter) - Bloc tests - Documentation
Cheers, Alex
