4.2 FileSystem was integrated integrated into Pharo 2 https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-changelogs/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=filesystem 4.3 Announcement were introduced in Pharo 1.3 https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-changelogs/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=announcements Ephemeron VM support available soon in Spur VM (?). Probably work more needed image side (?) 4.5 Bootstrap Core - Work In Progress https://ci.inria.fr/pharo/job/Pharo-5.0-Update-Step-3-Minimal/Full 4.6 Fully parametrized compiler tool chain I'm not clear on what "fully parameterized" encompasses, but the old Compiler was replaced by new OpalCompiler in Pharo 3 - I guess to satisfy this. https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-changelogs/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=opal 4.7 Packages as real objects Begun in Pharo 2 with introduction of RPackage. Completed in Pharo 4 with removal of PackageInfo. https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-changelogs/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=package 4.8 Package Meta-Data Not sure what this entails or status. Package Manifest introduced in Pharo 2 https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-changelogs/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=manifest 4.11 New Network Layer - I don't know. 4.12 Serializers - Fuel is the default serializer since Pharo 2. I don't know the rest of the scope for this point. https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-changelogs/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=fuel&type=Code cheers -ben
