Re: [Pharo-dev] [squeak-dev] Re: [Esug-list] Unethical behaviour on GSoC 2010 (was The truth on GSOC, ESUG and bad attitude)

Hi Janko, So you overrode Stefâs decision, left the project in, and what happened. Did we get a Newspeak / Smalltalk translator? Iâm not sure I agree with Igor here. If someone wanted to do a translator to some other language, that might be cool. Having more ways to integrate with other languages may not be a bad idea. I donât think it would be a project for a student or something that could be properly accomplished during a summer. But I guess that doesnât matter, a summer could get you 80% of the way there. This seems to me to be a difference of opinion and not an ethical lapse or an abuse of power. Stef was right in asking for the suggestion to be removed. You were right to disagree. In both cases it was a judgment call. It seems to me that since the project stayed on the site, that Stef was also quite reasonable. He listened to your objection, he heard your opinion, (he probably disagreed with you), and he let the idea stay on the site. The only thing that may have made this better would have been Stef requesting the removal publically. This transparency would have come at the risk of alienating the Newspeak community which in my mind is still part of the Smalltalk community, and one of the better contributors of code for all of us (considering their current work on Cog and Spur). In that light, I understand the desire to do it privately. In this case, in my opinion, everyone acted ethically. There is no blame to be found.

2010? Really? If there were a problem with GSoC 2010, you should have spoke that through *in 2010*. Bringing back such story as public ad hominem accusations four years later is just useless and harmful, as this flamewar demonstrates. Smalltalk community is too small to afford this kind of tensions.

Hi happy (or sad like me today) Smalltalkers and friends for most of you. Thank for the support of some of you. I think that this story is an amazing press for Smalltalk. Iâm still shocked that people do not realise how it can be bad for all of us. Now I have my part of responsibility and I should not have replied to such aggression. But I have one rule in life is to never let people lie about me and my projects. Since I feel that I cannot do much beside being systematically insulted without the right to say anything I will quit the GSOC mentor mailing-list, I will not propose any topics this year and I will set up a rule to any mails with Janko or GSOC to be trashed. Iâm immensely sad for the students that work with me and all the people that trust me and judge me on my acts since all these years. Fools and idiots won. I lost no problem. I prefer to focus on creating good energy. No need to reply because my filter is on and delete everything automatically. Stef In these moments, I wonder why I did not went in ruby.

Re: [Pharo-dev] Trying to change the color of the window

by phil＠highoctane.be

Esteban has started a dark theme based on Darcula. I am eager to see/get some code based on that as a dark theme is really interesting for me due to eye problems. I tried with 2.0 but frankly, it is a massive mess to get things to diplay properly. One thing I did to see where things where happening is that I made Color white to respond something like a nuclear green instead of white and see where it was showing. Then you can pick the morphs and browse them. That's where you start crying. 3.0 should be in a better shape.

I just remembered the discussion, not that we even solved that already last year. The whole discussion started because of my mail and I am kicking myself for having send it in the first place: THERE WAS NO PROBLEM LAST YEAR. We just need to think about what to do this year, this is what I wanted to say in the original mail, because what we did last year we could do last year but not again. Now this mail will not help anything and just add to the messâ¦ I am really sorry for having started the whole discussion. (instead of a relaxing weekend to be productive I am now an unproductive mess after a weekend without sleepâ¦ not good). Marcus

Trying to change the color of the window

by kilon alios

I am trying to make a dark theme for pharo. So I was studying the subclasses of UITheme class. As a first step I want to darken the color of the windows , so I used newDefaultSettings class method to change the color, and I saw no effect. I also even tried to use the right arrow drop down menu that has an entry with window color and still I see no effect. Is this a bug ? I think I remember this used to work in Pharo 3. I am on Pharo 3 and using image 30753 which I fetched today with PharoLauncher. I would like to also ask if there is any documentation of themes and morphic around to help me customize the look its something really crucial for my project Ephestos and I would hate having to recreate Morphic from scratch to do this. Because as it is I find it very hard to understand the methods of UITheme.

So, if i understood correctly, ESUG spent more money last year running GSoC than it received from Google. Which literally means ESUG budget lost some money. Shall any students/mentors/ESUG affiliates be enraged about that fact? Or did smalltalk community in general lost because of that? I may be wrong (because sure thing i am biased asshole), but as to me both answers will be 'no'. -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko.
