I forgot about you! even when I follow your blog.
You're the only person/project I know uses Glorp in VA.

Test coverage is pretty good, but I've been bitten by what you mention.
That's how I realized the port I'm using is outdated.

I know, but I really don't know who reads Glorp mailing list, and
particularly *how often*.

Francois asked about GLORP here and got a bunch of responses in a
couple of hours, had he asked the same in Glorp's mailing list and
probably would have got a "please ask in the Pharo mailing list about
its port" response.
And this is no critic to Alan nor anybody there, it's just a matter of
how active a mailing list is and how "foreign" Pharo's version is,
they simply don't know what Pharo has.
