Re: [Pharo-project] Pharo XMLRPC Project

by GermÃ¡n Arduino

Hi Skrish: I'm trying to integrate all the current stuff on the XMLRPC repo on Squeaksource [1] (integrating some previous work of me adding bytestring support on the spy client). I need to understand exactly all the prereq of your work because had some trouble loading on a Pharo 1.1 image. Can you comment in which version of image are you working and the exact package versions of the prereq? Thanks! GermÃ¡n. [1] I already asked permit to the authors of the current versions on Squeaksource and they agree on we use this code base as a starting point. All is MIT.

Mmm, I don't know if it is right now, but in the future the configurations will add a little more value (like describing a version as "stable for pharo1.0" or "release for pharo 1.1"...)

[Pharo-project] DejaVu extra sizes Re: DemoMode should not change Fonts only sizes?

This package works great (Pharo 1.1, Cog, OSX). Thanks for the pointer. Due to the size issue, I wouldn't include them all by default. Maybe we could make some clever set of MC packages that you can load for each font size that you want ? Or load the spec data from a file/url ? I think most people will only need one or two sizes. The fallback should just be miminal. Sven

[Pharo-project] ESUG actions (was: Best Spreading Smalltalk Actions)

by Noury Bouraqadi

Hi, ESUG is willing to support all actions everywhere. The "E" of ESUG can also be interpreted as "Earth-wide" :-) In places where there are Smalltalk groups we help them (sponsoring). Otherwise we push their creation. If you have a project that might help the Smalltalk community in someway (free software project, writing books, organizing an event, ...), you are eligible to ESUG support. Just submit your proposal to the ESUG board (board(a)esug.org) and you'll get quickly an answer. You can find a list of ESUG actions on-line: http://www.esug.org/Promotion Noury ESUG Treasurer www.esug.org On 21 sept. 2010, at 13:25, GermÃ¡n Arduino wrote: > Hi: > > I agree with Mariano, ESUG is sponsoring me even when I do not live in > Europe and I can not even go to conferences in Europe. > > Also they helped me to present my products in two editions of > Innovation Technology Awards, without being present. > > Thanks ESUG. > > > 2010/9/21 Mariano Martinez Peck <marianopeck(a)gmail.com>: >> >> >> On Fri, Sep 17, 2010 at 7:16 PM, Casey Ransberger <casey.obrien.r(a)gmail.com> >> wrote: >>> >>> As far as sponsoring local user groups: does this apply only in Europe?
