Hi guys I just want to thank you for your positive energy. We had a dream with marcus about a better Smalltalk and this is happening. This is cool. It was not easy but the community is moving - more than we would ever thought after all these years trying to push with less success. Our vision for pharo is described on the pharo web site :) http://www.pharo-project.org/about Now my personal challenge/vision is the following: - I want Pharo to be a cool vehicule for innovation. - I want Pharo to be a solid vehicule for companies to succeed making a living with "Smalltalk" --- I put "" because I would like to avoid to get bound until the end of my life with just a Smalltalk :) but I would love to see companies starting in France around Pharo if you are interested contact me :) Let us really invent the future building on the past. If you want to help, check the mailing-list - you can see our open-process: open and pragmatic communication, discussing and learning are key for us -- sorry for the volume of mails. Spread the word: Pharo is what we will make it to be. Don't always trust what others write between the lines on us. ;-D Check by yourself (drink a beer with us before) and study history - all is in there. Stef
