I used it to debug and fix a few things in the Slot class builder. Besides a startup bug and some background redrawing problems I didn't have troubles.

Re: [Pharo-dev] [ANN] SS3 the canary site

by Nicolas Petton

Thanks Tobias for the update! This version looks good, and I think moving to bootstrap was a good move :) About the competition, I don't mind it. About working on SmalltalkHub with me, I sure would be glad, but I also completely understand your point. One thing we could do though is maybe share experience (feel free to email me) and discuss about both platforms? It can always be positive. A note about stef's answer. I work with him everyday, and I can say that he for sure didn't mean to insult you. His emails can sometimes be taken the wrong way. It happened to me more than once (then I usually arrived at work and saw a friendly smile on his face). But hey, stef, sometimes you may want to read twice your emails before sending them (and then wait a day or two, read it again, and make sure you're still ok with it ;-) Cheers, Nico On Jun 30, 2013, at 2:18 PM, StÃ©phane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse(a)inria.fr> wrote: >>> Thanks tobias. >>> >>> To me your version of SS3 looks even more Squeak centric and this is ok but my plate is full >>> and I'm sorry but I focus on Pharo because we must deliver and continue. >> >> That was uncalled for.
