I think the problem was and (maybe still is) that there were no aligned VM releases. It's dependent on the VM maintainer time and what he included (fixes, new plugins).

So on each platform there was an own custom versioning scheme (one for mac, one for windows, ...).

On windows: for standard vm Andreas aligned with Squeak releases: http://squeakvm.org/win32/release/?C=M;O=D and Eliot is oriented towards his SVN revision number http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/

We have system that builds VMs from the latest soures automatically. No need to wait for anyone.

But there was a discussion on VM versioning on vm-dev list. Maybe you should discuss it there.

I unsubscribed from all Squeak lists after 3.9. And that was final. Marcus -- Marcus Denker -- http://www.marcusdenker.de INRIA Lille -- Nord Europe. Team RMoD.
