Exactly. This researcher/industry - lab/delivery is always present, no matter where one goes.

I was thinking more along the lines of:


Investing in the industry

Thousands of vendors depend on Intel� processors for product development. To help them forge ahead with new product advancements, Intel invests heavily in research that drives innovations at the silicon level and establishes new, industry-wide standards. Combined with the predictability of Intel�s tick-tock model, these efforts promote faster, more efficient innovation throughout the industry�year-in and year-out.

This makes think of the tick tock model of Intel improvements.


Looks like with 2.0 and 3.0 we are going to have two "tick"s in a row. That may be too much.

I am afraid even trying out 3.0 when reading about all the moving parts that are changing in all corners.


Maybe we should give up, define Pharo as finished and be happy.

I don't think that every statement that has a notion like the one from phil needs a response out of self-defense. This will happen as long as the "researcher guys" and the "industry guys" share the same table. It is just the way it is and we are free to leave statements uncommented.
