First, on the download page there is still a link to the old CI server (or is it still used?) http://www.pharo-project.org/pharo-download
Second, the link for the Cog VMs points to http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/ Unfortunately, these VMs come with no plugin.
Why not advertizing the Cog VMs on https://ci.lille.inria.fr/pharo/view/Cog/ ? (at least the blessed ones)
Yes, we need to fix all that... I will slowly do it. Marcus -- Marcus Denker -- http://marcusdenker.de
Hi, I did the following: 1) I took the VMs used in the one-click and made zip files from them. https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/29040/CogVM-Mac-13307.zip https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/29042/CogVM-Unix-13307.zip https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/29045/CogVM-Win-13307.zip The version number is the last update number. This way it's clear: use that VM with 1.3 2) I simplified http://www.pharo-project.org/pharo-download - one one-click is referenced - for 1.3 and 1.4, one image is referenced - The VMs are referenced and only those. We can simplify it even more: the .sources is contained in the image zips, so we don't need to mention it. Better? Marcus On Sep 18, 2011, at 5:12 PM, Marcus Denker wrote:

Looks nice should we maybe mark the 1.4 as beta? On 2011-09-19, at 15:15, Marcus Denker wrote:
