Just an important point I want to add: for me I do not oppose beauty and fun. One of the goal of pharo is to get beauty and beautiful, clean and lean (and fast) abstractions. I want people to be able to learn and grow themselves from it. I'm tired to say to the smart people I worked with: don't look at that or that because this is too old and fragile and patched. Now based on beautiful abstractions people should be able to create other fun stuff. I never understood why people oppose these two notions. I want nice code to go fast in the next generation.... stef
