Well, I agree with Esteban and Thierry in the fact that making our
lives easier to manage now by pushing changes into the Pharo/main
branch will make things harder in the long run.
Yes but you see when you clean the architecture and the dependencies
then after you can change
not before.
At least I'm not Toyota (if you know the story). My time is too limited.
I think we can see this as a case of two dependent configurations
ConfigurationOfPharo (which does not exist but as the ad-hoc list of
packages in Pharo/main)
ConfigurationOfRubric => depends on ConfigurationOfPharo
Stef, I'd manage it like this:
- push the change we have into rubric
- open an issue number X asking for the integration of rubric with
that feature
- open an issue Y that depends on X with the other slice of changes
And here the main problem that we will have is that if we do not
integrate quickly these fixes, then slices can age and become not valid.
This is ok for me so I will not work on anything during the summer.
Because when people are on vacation
what do we do? Busy polling? Play magic?
Alternatively, we can do it in several steps, avoiding the dependency:
- push the change into rubric
- push the part of the change into pharo that does not break the
current version of rubric (avoid the renames/removals of methods)
- when both are integrated we do the last step that integrates the
last set of changes
And die in deadlock?

I believe GTTools is certainly a poster case for trying to make that
process simpler.
I would really be interested to see how a combination of simpler
configurations, baselines, tags and branches would look. A kind of
hierarchical modeling where you only have configurations at the
moment.
