SmalltalkHub is slow, so donât click too fast :-(
While Iâm grateful to developers of SmalltalkHub and previously SqueakSource, I believe as a small community, we cannot afford developing everything by ourselves. We donât have enough man-power. We can see the symptoms since SmalltalkHub is in beta stage since way too long...
People on this list used to say the same about squeaksource.com. But it has been working flawlessly since it got updated to the latest version (which implies that a few bugs got fixed). What makes you think that tracking down the bugs in SmalltalkHub and fixing them wouldn't be enough? Based on my experience a single image - running well designed software - is able to serve about ten million requests a day. I think that the actual load on smalltalkhub.com is about three magnitudes lower than that. Levente
Itâs better to use some mainstream platform such as github. Weâll we have support for it in Pharo 4?
It would be interesting also from the communication point of view to make the world a little bit more aware of Pharo.
