13:52:00 <roarde> have there been any bugs, fixed or unfixed, noted in 10.7.2?
13:53:18 <crc> nope
13:54:19 <roarde> so it'd be the "canonical mature" retro 10 at this point?
13:54:49 <roarde> versions after start adding features from 11, no?
13:55:10 <crc> correct
13:57:01 <roarde> no apology for using "canonical" and "retro" on the same line :D
13:57:04 <crc> though the new features don't impact compatibility in any way. Each subsequent release maintains compatibility with prior 10.7.x releases
13:58:42 <roarde> I've not really looked at 10.6; it's a little out of line with the rest, right?
13:59:15 <crc> correct. 10.6 was an intermediate step towards bridging the stable and unstable code branches.
14:01:36 <crc> I'd use 10.7.x (other than 10.7.3, due to the bugs in the buffer' vocabulary), or 10.5.
14:16:00 * crc updated the archive page to note known buggy versions and suggest alternate releases to use instead
14:16:59 <roarde> if only I could get as much done when I'm concentrating as you do when you're sidetracked (or not)!
14:27:30 <crc> I'm no where near as productive as I used to be. I used to have much more free time to work on my projects; now I'm often distracted
14:39:20 <roarde> what's the most popular 9.x?
14:44:55 <crc> 9.2.8 I think
14:46:42 <crc> I believe that .9 and .10 were just to update the ANS compliance library
14:48:10 <crc> correct that; 9.2.10 fixed a bug in the syscall interface for FreeBSD and NetBSD that was causing them to coredump
14:50:00 <roarde> thanks. I'm thinking about doing some backwards compatibility.
14:55:32 <roarde> the archive page could use a distinctive metatitle
14:56:24 <crc> done
14:56:45 <roarde> yeah, that works

16:21:33 <erider> hi all 
16:22:32 <roarde> hi, erider
16:22:56 <crc> hello erider
16:27:19 <erider> hi guys whats new 
16:27:38 <erider> how is the forth community 
16:29:41 <crc> the forth community remains as-is; though there was some debate over the merits of GPL vs BSD style licenses in #forth yesterday (yawn)
16:30:04 <crc> retro 10.7.4 was released today to fix some serious bugs in 10.7.3; it also has updated documentation
16:34:15 <erider> crc: cool you are keeping it up to date 
19:01:36 <roarde> The reference is to retro computers, not Retro   (09:58:16 PM) ASau: I wonder when these retromaniacs will die out or at least shut up.
19:02:14 <crc> what was the date on that?
19:02:31 <roarde> Still, this "retromaniacs" monniker may come in useful.
19:02:33 <roarde> just now
19:02:58 <roarde> Like I said, wasn't referring to Retro language.
19:03:25 <roarde> (though I'm waiting for him to apply it so :P)
19:04:06 <roarde> oops missed the edit: it's #NetBSD
19:04:21 <crc> ok
