3.9 was the best release I've used yet. I'm glad someone is thinking about a *serious* open source Smalltalk instead of arguing about how they miss that stupid mouse or whining about eToys.
******THANKS******* you cannot imagine how it is a good feeling to hear that.
indeed. About etoys: It's not that I don't like the idea. I continue to be a big fan of the dynabook idea. But etoys was not well done from an implementation standpoint (impossible to maintain). In addition, those working on squeakland never where interested in working together with anyone.
You did make a better Squeak, and I look forward to seeing Pharo burn the diskpacks a bit and throw out all the crap bogging Squeak down. Keep up the good work, some of us do appreciate it.
Thanks. We will try our best. Marcus do you hear that :) because marcus was really burnt by squeak :(
Yes. And only very slowly recovering. Marcus -- Marcus Denker -- denker@iam.unibe.ch http://www.iam.unibe.ch/~denker
