NSTimer bug was due to some local changes of mine, sorry for the noise. The latest fixes to NSURL and SimpleWebKit seemt o have solved the original bug. Gregory confirms

I can't reproduce any timer issue ... when I 'gopen http://www.gnustep.org' I just get a panel popped up by Vespucci saying 'Load failed' and 'Could not load URL'

I don't see any details in the bug report (architecture, OS, library version stacktraces etc), but it's almost certainly not GC related ... unless you are running with GC enabled. I'm pretty sure that the only place -finalize is called in any of the classes when GC is not enabled is from -dealloc (so maybe you have a retain-release error).

Also, NSTimer has no finalize method, so it's unclear what class is causing the timer problem ... it presumably can't really be NSTimer itsself.

it appears to be getting this since the finalize method is being called at some point and invalidating the timer.

I am going to try to get richard to look int this.

An NSTimer issue, which I will post in a later message, comes up when opening a URL like so:

gopen "http://www.someurl.com"

This should bring up Vespucci with the URL mentioned.
