I come a little late for comment (hard day :-( ) so, I'll take profit of Stef's remarks to bring up an ancillary question to the group.
Letting out the humble inclusions of a lot of hot shot programmers as "beginners" and trying this from a Requirements Elicitation exercise:
What will we consider a *beginner*?
everybody that want to be considered as - not knowing smalltalk - not knowing pharo - programming language learner. Stef
People that never learned a programming language and need tutoring in basics?
People that know other programming languages? Being so shall separate the efforts to teach the ones that know OO from the ones are knowledgeable in procedural ones¹?
People already knowing Smalltalk but new to Pharo?
I feel that in addition to mailing list (and perhaps newsgroup), we should assemble a CMS for spreading the basics and using the features of the system to direct prospective users according to their needs/wishes.

Ok (we are all beginners :) at least I'm :) ).

Hi
Maybe it would be better to name it pharo-user(s) and leave this list for the developers of pharo? Because "beginner" has too narrow meaning.

Hi all
I remember that the squeak-beginner mailing-list (our ideas) was a huge success since it enabled people to ask questions and have less mails. So a question to you: do you think that it would be good to have a pharo-beginner mailing list?
