[Pharo-project] Gardening/ScriptManager

First - we talked about ScriptManager and it is nice that we now have it as MIT. We can use it. OK nice tool. Second: Joseph also suggested Ginsu - and since it's not available I asked if it is possible to make it public to see if it is of any use. Maybe it is usefull to someone or parts of its code base. I DONT KNOW since I dont have it and dont know how good it actually is/what problems it solves. At least it is not of of any use when it is closed - thats why I asked for opening the code. Nothing more. I did not recommend it as the "next" package management system. I just want to see all options and ideas to form an own (unified?) vision...

[Pharo-project] Fwd: Google Summer of Code 2010 is On......
by Janko MivÅ¡ek Jan. 27, 2010

Jan. 27, 2010

Hi guys! Google Summer of Code (GSC) is approaching and we need to apply of course. Big question is, how. As one, as three, as ten applicants? I would rather not divide us too much for GSC so I propose to go as one, but how? Because an organization/project needs to apply, not the consortion of organizations ... Or there is maybe an exception? Janko -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Google Summer of Code 2010 is On...... Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2010 16:09:25 -0800 (PST) From: LH <lhospo(a)gmail.com> Reply-To: google-summer-of-code-discuss(a)googlegroups.com To: Google Summer of Code Discuss <google-summer-of-code-discuss(a)googlegroups.com> Hello everyone, Many of you were wondering if Google Summer of Code 2010 is on for 2010 and the answer is yes! We will begin accepting application from would-be mentoring organizations beginning March 8th at approximately 19:00 UTC, with applications closing on March 12th at 23:00 UTC. Students can apply between 19:00 UTC on March 29th to 19:00 UTC on April 9th. We will be updating the program website [0], including the FAQs [1], over the next few days. Not much is going to change except the timeline, though there are a few FAQs that will be added. If you have any questions in the interim please do send them to the list. Please note that questions about which project you should select, etc., will likely be responded to with "depends on your skill set," so please take the time to do some research [2] about which project is right for you. While mentoring organizations for 2010 will be announced until March 18th, a great number of the projects that have participated in the past [3] will return once again in 2010. Of course, that's not a guarantee and we cannot accept every great project that applies. But if you want to get a jump start on your participation in GSoC 2010, considering lurking in the IRC channel of a past participating project and seeing what useful things you can learn about their code base and community. Check out project forums to see if it's a place you'd like to spend your time. I'll be sending a follow up message in a few minutes about what to expect in the next few days/weeks and how you can help Google Summer of Code 2010. Google Summer of Code 2010 is on! Celebrate!

Maybe someone can publish the last world tour image too. Thanks! Since I haven't worked on it for a while now, I'll have to see what the latest version I have looks like, and what I'd want to put out publicly.

[Pharo-project] How can I change the size of the World ?
by Mariano Martinez Peck Jan. 26, 2010

Jan. 26, 2010

Hi folks. Actually, I a not sure if what I want is to change the size of the World, but the size of the windows. The problem is this: the PharoCore images, when I open them, they have a little size by default. I always need to make them bigger. I have to do the same with the Dev images. So, I would like to do that from Smalltalk side and add it to my scripts to build dev images. Is this possible ? how ? I looked in Display and World, but I didn't find what I need. Cheers Mariano

If I delete FTPlugin directory found in Exupery vm then TestIndenting succeed. So FTPlugin + Exupery + Linux = TestIndenting fails. Someone know how can I compile squeak vm with FTPlugin ?
