[Pharo-project] [ANN] Magma 1.2
Magma 1.2 is now finally released for Squeak 4.2, Pharo 1.1 and Pharo 1.2. This new release offers improved performance thanks to minimizing the problem associated with finalization, as well as avoiding Squeak's slow become except once every 30 seconds. See http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6163 for release-notes details. I just went through all of the wiki pages and fixed / updated several of them, including new, clean, one-click installation scripts for for Pharo: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2657 Squeak users may install with one-click directly from the SqueakMap Catalog user-interface. I hope Pharo will consider bringing this back into a future version; SqueakMap already has several projects that load from Metacello. I also realized several of Magma's special capabilities have been undocumented. I've now documented them. http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6164 This release is, exactly, one year since Magma 1.1, thank you for your patience. As before, support for Magma is described at: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5818
Thanks Chris, I will install it this night and update the ConfigurationOfMagma and will set new #stable version both for Pharo 1.1.x and Pharo 1.2.x Thank you very much for your effort to keep Magma working on Pharo. We the Pharoers are very grateful. Cheers El mar, 19-04-2011 a las 17:08 -0500, Chris Muller escribió:

Thanks Chris for all your effort. I think Magma is a real needed product. On Wed, Apr 20, 2011 at 7:10 AM, Elliot Finley <efinley.lists@gmail.com>wrote:

If you want to work on a chapter for the new book let us know. Now I will not be able to be the driving force since I do not know your system. Stef On Apr 20, 2011, at 12:08 AM, Chris Muller wrote:
