@ssolie

And how about "old" applications, the new installer will mantain a sort of compatibility with LISP or there will be another retro-compatible installer method for all our old apps ? :roll:

I know that we need to think forward but maintain compatibilty would be welcome too, expecially when possible :cry:

The old installer can hang around for that.

I agree with abalaban, there needs to be some documentation for the python installer if you want to encourage people to use it. Reading back on the previous page I can only deduce that I should find this install.py and copy it to my application's directory, open it and play around. I did manage to locate documentation on the 'old' installer, but it all looks rather bespoke with an odd syntax. I'd rather adopt Hyperion's vision of a standard installer and learn to use Python - after all its a cross-platform language and there is nothing stopping me using the knowledge I have learnt elsewhere.
For example in the future when I have the time I would love to learn the flickr API and perhaps others too; how is that related? Well most of them support Python.

Wel this one should be really usefull to fix:
exec.library:

(*) Alert() is broken: Alerts cannot be closed on a SAM; only on a
PS/2 interface, not a USB or Synergyc interface. Consequently,
DisplayAlert() (in intution.library) is likewise broken. (You can
use http://aminet.net/util/misc/AlPatch.lha (or similar) to work
around this.)
Everytime i have an Alert i need to turn-off my machine completely (Sam440 Flex) because the mouse doesn't seems to work at all :roll:

Do gcc bugs go into bugzilla aswell or will it be handled by a completely different person/team?
If yes, where could one get support/send bug reports?
