Yes, I feel guilty of not being able to contribute more fixes. You are doing the excellent job of integrating submitted patches instantaneous. The problem is that the unstable versions are pushed extremely hard, while the supposedly stable versions are still unstable. I don't see how this can possibly work? Subsequently, I hesitate to submit a patch for an old version because I know it won't be possible to merge it into newer versions. This is a vicious circle.

Don't feel guilty :) But send fixes so that we can collect them for a given version. And we will not get perfect systems. Imagine IBM payed during several year 100 engineers to build eclipse and so far we got one engineer 8 months. Stef On Aug 23, 2011, at 9:57 AM, Lukas Renggli wrote:

Imagine IBM paying engineers to maintain an smalltalk application during like 10 years, and I still find some really ugly bugs hehe On 23 August 2011 14:12, Stéphane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse@inria.fr> wrote:
