honestly, the more and more the time passes the less and less we are compatible… and this will increase will time. if you want to keep compatibility you will have to provide compatibility abstractions and packages (in the same way Seaside uses Grease, etc.) now… In this particular case I didn’t see any contributor from outside Pharo community… so is just an “abstract reflection”, not a reality… I would wait until some one in the Squeak community decides to use it and then it creates the compatibility layer (adding layers are usually a bad thing… specially when they are not necessary).
