[Pharo-project] CLFramework and Pharo

by Torsten Bergmann

Hi Gerard, >DonÂ´t exists problem for change the license. What differences exists between >one and other? I dont understand. If you dont know the difference why did you change from MIT to BSD for CLFramework? I'm not a lawyer but AFAIK the MIT states more explicitly the rights given to the end-user. And there are many BSD versions "Modified BSD license", "The Clear BSD License", "FreeBSD license", ... MIT is what Pharo uses and accepts for inclusion. Keeping MIT for the framework would also help to reuse part of your code in Pharo itself or use the UI builder as part of special Pharo distributions. Maybe also there is a way that the project continues >I believe is best create another from scratch, but with WPF like model and >XAML as UI definition language. That is for people with best knowledges. That sounds like the project really stopped from your side. Sad since beside "Dr. Geo II" [1] it was another real and interesting use case for Polymorph and was/is a usable UI builder. Laurent wrote on [2] >nullpointer, the code is important, sharing your experience is *far* more >important. Please, do so. Yes that would be good to know about the reasons. We know that you were not satisfied with your own code - but who of us really is? >The main difference is addition of grid control. Better widgets for Polymorph are always a plus ... when you accept MIT and sent the agreement [3] to Stef it may not be lost and can be folded back to Polymorph and Pharo. Or someone may step up and continue with the whole project. Would be sad if all your efforts would be lost. Thanks T.

That is for people with best knowledges. The current version is 90. The main difference is addition of grid control. PS. IÂ´m wrong before and did send the answer directly your mail, excuse me.

Again I can't say anything either way as to when or whether this will be released. But we did finally release Cog , so at least there's a precedent :) I like precedent like that one :) Stef

Indeed what I really want to know: - why is it considered as failed ? - what were the errors made ? - if we re-start from scratch, what we should *not* do ? - if we fork it, what should we trash / rewrite ? It's sad because "nullPointer" must have gain a lot of experience doing this, even if he doesn't like the code he has written, bump on hard issues, .... nullpointer, the code is important, sharing your experience is *far* more important. Please, do so.

[Pharo-project] CLFramework and Pharo

by Torsten Bergmann

I've just noticed that "nullPointer" now recreated http://www.squeaksource.com/CLFramework again and uploaded CLFramework-nullPointer.90.mcz This time the code has a BSD license. The page says "Failed attempt of visual UI builder for Pharo-Polymorph. Abbandoned. Only works in Pharo 1.0" >From my point of view: 1. This sounds very negative and I dont understand what lead to this decision. Similar to the decision to delete the project on SqS midway. Especially since the previews looked really really good. Is it a time or other issue on nullpointer's side or did the community fail in support... 2. This looks to me as if the project will stop now with 1.0 and is not moved to 1.1. or 1.2 3. I dont understand why the license changed from MIT to BSD but that does not allow us to include the now released version 90 or further work in the MIT licensed pharo-dev. I expect a day in the life of Pharo where people will demand more support to build visual tools. So to create a UI Builder the community - either has to start from scratch then - or continue with the project as a fork based on an earlier version ("CLFramework-nullPointer.70.mcz" was the last one released as MIT) Really sad.
