- In the README.TXT we also have to put links for help: squeakvm site, posts like Laurent or Adrain - Gunification - It needs to have a name of PharoXXX. Not squeak. This is VERY
confusing
for newcomers.
I agree we need to explain better the distinction between the VM and the image. I'm not sure about renaming squeak-vm -> pharo-vm. It's not a fork. I tend to think it will bring higher confusion.
I don't agree. Image you are a new comer. For you, Pharo is Pharo. You probaly have no idea what Squeak is. So...you go to Pharo website, and download the image, and the VM. Imagine when you go to download the VM and it says "SqueakVM". I would say "WTF?????" "WTF is squeak?" I am not saying forking the VM. Just to rename it. Actually, the windows VM has that name: "http://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/26654/PharoVM-Win32-3.11.8.zip" And the same with exupery: " http://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/24736/pharo-vm-0.15.2f-linux.zip"
Yes and also having a Pharo icon and not a Squeak one.
Yes! The windows VM has already that. The MacVM, I sent an email few months ago to explain how to do it. If you want, I can upload a Squeak 4.2.2beta1U.app but with the Pharo icons and named Pharo 4.2.2beta1U.app Then we link from the website to that VM. What do you think ? I know there are newer MacOS VMs, but they are still in beta and for the Pharo 1.0 I think the best VM is the 4.2.2.beta1 What do you think ? Cheers Mariano
