"Smalltalk inspired" is reinforcing "Sorry for dead Smalltalk
The more I think about it, the more I dislike Smalltalk-inspired. I think the best plan would be to: 1. Hold off for a brief moment mentioning Smalltalk at all - e.g. give a sound bite, introduce the environment and libraries, and then when we're ready to mention the language and legacy 2. Something like "Smalltalk Unleashed" or "Smalltalk Reborn"
Smalltalk reborn is the kind of bold statement that we should aim to say but I donât feel we are quite ready to tell that just yet. If we force things and we do weâll devaluate our speech because the expectations are very high out there. But.. if we raise the bar on innovation and become able to do things like Meteor, thatâs a whole different story. If something of that caliber happens and we have things to battle test them and we do good, then things would get really exciting⦠super heroic kind of exciting⦠continuation of the legend kind of exiting... tl;dr: Many prolific and prosperous things could come from a Pharo Amber relationship In fact, hush hush, but at flowing we just approved doing a feature in airflowing that is not doable without Amber and Pharo. Wonder how our audience will respond to that... sebastian o/
