I would rather prefer spend time working, testing and
debugging the Gobo package than testing EiffelStudio.
But if ISE wants to test EiffelStudio with Gobo's code,
you are welcome.

We don't wait the release of Gobo to do that. What I'm
concerned about is last minute bug discovery, which in
my experience building the Gobo package happens quite
often.
