Hi Mariano,
Our website, pharo-project.org, is Cmsbox, not Pier.
Ups....sorry. You are right :)
�
But anyway, we've
already set up a blog. The only problem is that nobody got round to
writing posts so far...
mmmmmm I didn't now about that. Was that announced ?
Anyway, that's really cool.
�
If you have a post to publish, please send it to me. Or I can grant
you access to publish it yourself.
Yes, I would like to publish!! I would like you have access (to see myself how it is rendered) but I also I would like you (or someone) to "check and valid" it before the submit. I remember (maybe I am wrong) that in Pier you can create the Post but don't put a publish date. This doesn't publish the post until you do that. So, if you have something similar in cmsbox, maybe we can use that strategy.
The URL is
http://www.pharo-project.org/news� isn't it ?

It would be cool if people start to post those kind of stuff.
Cheers
Mariano
Cheers,
Adrian
