[OT] Giving away a dead NeXTStation Turbo

2007-01-27 Thread Rodrigo Miranda

Hi there,

If anyone in this list is in Brazil and is interested in a dead mono
turbo station, drop me a message. I need the space, and maybe someone
more knowledgeable in electronics than me might bring it back to life.
I am not selling it, but I have to get rid of it. I just would rather
give it to someone rather than take it to a dumpster.

I won't pay for shipping, but anyone interested is welcome to drop by
and take it away.

Thanks,

Rodrigo

 I don't know why it wouldn't be a bug. Anyway, the Testfarm shows
 several machines that fail (and don't).  For instance gcc 4.0.1 on
 Darwin fails to compile, but 4.1.1. (on Solaris) happiliy compiles this...

Sorry for taking so long to fix this simple bug. The ivar in
NSMenuItemCell was totally useless and was only set and used within a
single method. But then the code did not belong into this method at all.
So I had to move it to a different method and then one thing followed
from the other. In the end I had do do quite a few changes to the file
and would even prefer to change more in it. But before doing this, I
would like to get some feedback on the changes up to now.

As for the compiler, I now think that the correct behaviour was to allow
the duplicate ivar. In NSMenuItemCell this ivar was declared as private.
With that scope it should not clash with another ivar of the same name
in a super class. At least this is what I think. Still it is better to
avoid this case and have unique names for ivars.

Cheers,
Fred

Re: Delay of release....

Hi!

 I agree with that, but the fact is that we haven't done that in the  
 past, so if we are going to start we need a policy decision that  
 bugfixes are to be backported from trunk to the stable branch [...]

This sounds like a very good idea to me, especially the idea of
publishing daily snapshots.

Speaking of GNUstep bugfix releases, what happened to the release of
version 1.13.1, that fixes the buffer overflow issue I reported (
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?18366)? I've seen that the stable branch
is tagged 1.13.1 now, but there's still no release made public, neither
on the web page nor on the ftp. I know that your time is limited and
this is all done on a volunteer basis, but this is certainly not a good
sign for a framwork which wants to be used in professional applications.

Don't get me wrong, I don't blame anyone on this. I'm happy that the
patch came so quick, but it's sad that the bugfix release did somehow
not come out yet, as the task of doing it should be easy compared to
doing a bugfix.

The package is still in the incoming directory on the ftp server.  I  
could move it and update everything, I just was unsure if Richard or  
Greg wanted to wait for something.  Let me know.

I put it up there for Greg to put in place (I don't have write access  
to do it myself) and emaild him about it a few weeks ago.
Don't know whether he just hasn't had time or there is some other  
reason.
