Cool! (btw, I also didn't get the mails from the SF tracker although I'm monitoring it, also not all of these mails didn't arrive on the scintilla list, so I'd say also it's a problem at SF)
So now, can we patch our copy of Scintilla, or do we need to wait until their next release and then until we update to that version?
We can patch our copy now.
I'm pretty confident those patches will apply cleanly on versions between ours and what they just got committed to, though I don't really understand Scintilla versions and how/when we update.
We update soon after a Scintilla release unless it's a major Scintilla release that may introduce bugs.
Currently there is the problem with dropped support for old C++ compilers which may not affect us directly but more over the introduction of new C++0x code. For details see http://groups.google.com/group/scintilla-interest/browse_thread/thread/8f9c4.... Though Scintilla's release notes state that the Borland C++ support was removed, I'm not sure if the new C++0x code is already in. Nick, Lex, do you know more about the current status?
