by Esteban Lorenzano

Hi, I want to add a âresourcesâ page in pharo.org <http://pharo.org/>.

I need you to help me to complete it. Keep in mind this is high level stuff (not details), frameworks and tools that can be used out of the box for people downloading Pharo. thanks!

IMHO it is confusing to have our build system scattered between various repos owned by different people.

These tools provide extension mechanisms that allow every object to define ways in which it can be understood effectively. To provide an idea of the impact of the already existing extensions, the map below shows the Pharo classes grouped in packages, highlighting in red those parts of the system that have at least one such custom view coming with the main distribution. The spread of these extensions shows that moldability is powerful mechanism that can be used in many contexts. > > > > Remember that Pharo is your platform.

Re: [Pharo-dev] Is Pharo Launcher Ready?

by Dale Henrichs

Thanks Damien, I will give it a go when I get a chance ... because it broke about 2 months ago and my mail to this list went unanswered, I've since removed it from my scripts (in an emergency no less, because the scripts were failing) and I have become a bit gunshy about relying on something that drops from support without warning .... Believe me I did not want to learn about `ldd` and the 12.04 pharo dependencies, but I had no choice:( I would like to be able to depend upon the zero conf scripts, because they are very convenient, but I am still hazy on the policy towards older releases and zero conf. It would be very convenient if the scripts worked "forever" for the old releases (pharo3.0 will be old in a year:) they don't need to be kept up to date with respect to the latest vm, but should be frozen at the last stable vm for that platform/release ... if that were true then I would be comfortable leaning heavily on zero conf for the installation/update scripts...if not...
