[Pharo-project] Coral?
by Alexandre Bergel March 6, 2011

March 6, 2011

Hi! After I've tried Hazel, I was wondering what is the status of Coral. I would love to move away from Bash. I am just wondering. Cheers, Alexandre -- _,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;: Alexandre Bergel http://www.bergel.eu ^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;.

[Pharo-project] Monticello diff between 2 version
by Miguel CobÃ¡ March 5, 2011

March 5, 2011

Maybe I am not seeing it but: How do you see the changes between 2 version in a given repository in Monticello? And then, how do you export it to a simple fileout or record them in a change set. More specifically how can I extract the changes introduced by Collections-cmm.405.mcz Collections-cmm.404.mcz in source.squeak.org/trunk Thanks -- Miguel CobÃ¡ http://twitter.com/MiguelCobaMtz http://miguel.leugim.com.mx

[Pharo-project] [Hudson] News
by Marcus Denker March 5, 2011

March 5, 2011

Hi, Slow but steady progress on the hudson infrastructure... 1) We have a Mac slave! Alive and kicking, but not doing anything other then an hourly ping https://pharo-ic.lille.inria.fr/hudson/job/Check%20Builder%20Mac/ 2) Cog Unix (both JIT and Stack VM) build. Fully automatic from repository to binary using Pharo 1.3 as the host system. https://pharo-ic.lille.inria.fr/hudson/job/Cog%20Unix%201.3/ https://pharo-ic.lille.inria.fr/hudson/job/Stack%20VM%20Unix/ lots to do... mac build, windows build. Build debug version, build latest stable *and* latest development, run tests... use the generated VM as the base VM for all 1.3 builds, use generated VM for 1.3 One-Click... and so on. 3) There is a build project for Project Sista... Image side for now, work in progress. https://pharo-ic.lille.inria.fr/hudson/job/Sista/ (broken right now) (TODO: We need to build cog-sista) Marcus -- Marcus Denker -- http://www.marcusdenker.de INRIA Lille -- Nord Europe.

Later people understood that MIT is even better... Wikepedia says: The MIT License is similar to the 3-clause "modified" BSD license, except that the BSD license contains a notice prohibiting the use of the name of the copyright holder in promotion. This is sometimes present in versions of the MIT License, as noted above. The original BSD license also includes a clause requiring all advertising of the software to display a notice crediting its authors. This "advertising clause" (since disavowed by UC Berkeley[7]) is present in the modified MIT License used by XFree86. The MIT License states more explicitly the rights given to the end-user, including the right to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell the software. For the Undo it was nor really worth to think about what it means to add BSD (and which of the BSD?) licensed code to an MIT licensed system...

[Pharo-project] Glamour-Morphic-Theme package rename?
by DougEdmunds March 5, 2011

March 5, 2011

Shouldn't the Glamour-Morphic-Theme package be renamed to fall under Polymorph-Widgets, like the other themes? It seem that otherwise, the package system will get cluttered with individual theme names. I think of the packaging system as most generic to more specific (using the hyphens). Glamour-Morphic-Theme seems to stick out as not following this naming convention. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Glamour-Morphic-Theme-package-rename-tp3332037p333203… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
