one less :)
but really, the problem is that those issues are mistaking issues… For OSWindow 
integration they are understanding three things: 

1) the integration of OSWindow mechanism as a way to control the system window. 
2) the replacement of current input event mechanism with a new, image-level 
one, more complete and modern. 
3) the replacement of current BitBlt system window with one based on SDL2 and 
vectorial graphics (Athens-based). 

As you might imagine… steps 2 and 3 are really needed, but far from easy. 
The only step that we could mark as “done” right now is the first one… steps 2 
and 3 are “more or less” worked… there are prototypes but still not realistic 
estimation of what amount of time will take to actually do it… It is “thought” 
to be done in Pharo5… we’ll see. 
 
And the problem on integrating some of those changes is that are 
“one-way-shots”… once done, we cannot go back. 
I will mark some of those issues as “on hold” with a clarification. 

cheers, 
Esteban
