### Here's what I've been up to since the last WhatsUp:

- Opal major progress. -> 20 Issue tracker entries left -> 20 Regression tests failing (most are tests specific to old compiler)

### What's next, until 2013-05-31 (*):

Finishing touches… --------------------------- -> Fix all failing regression tests Opal -> Fix bug Semantic Analysis for AST Interpreter -> merge Guille's changes to use Opal Semantic Analysis in AST Interprer -> Change Gisela's AST Suggestions/Navigation to use Opal Semantic Analysis -> Remove RB-AST-Semantics Package -> Check all remaining references to Compiler (and other classes) -> Move old Compiler to OldCompiler Package and make it unloadable Plugability --------------- -> Clients should be able to replace all components (Parser, ASTTranslater, SemCheck, BytecodeBuilder, IRBuilder). This is quite easy: we change the CompilationContext to provide the default classes. Just set your own. -> Add Plugin architecture for SemanticCheck Plugins and AST Transformation Plugins. If you just want to do something in addition, no need to override visitors: there should be a way to just subclass a pre-defined abstract visitor and a way to define order and Setting support…. Reflectivity -------------- -> Iterate with Camille on the reimplementation of Reflectivity. -> Add ReflectiveMethod to Pharo3. -> First Link-Inliner as Plugin for Opal. When all this is Done: =================== -> add entry to Suggestions Menu "Halt Once Here" which will just annotate this AST node with a meta-link which deinstalls itself and calls Halt. The Reflectivity model is quite powerful, and we can then build things on top that would be even unthinkable without… AST Everywhere + Slots + Reflectivity… this will be great :-) Marcus

### Here's what I've been up to since the last WhatsUp:

- $HEROIC_ACHIEVEMENTS_OR_DISMAL_FAILURES_OR_SIMPLE_BORING_NECESSARY_TASKS

- read all the logging frameworks - designed a minimal core one based on objects (no strings) - clean pharo by example repositories - starting a pass on Deep into Pharo - creating lecture support for Pharo - working on new chapters for the next book - cleaning UI - studying theme - running smallLint - AST for class/package definition discussions - changes design - prepare lecture in programming school

### What's next, until 2013-05-31 (*):

- $NEXT_STEPS_TOWARDS_WORLD_DOMINATION

- work on UI for the logger - continue to work on theme changes - continue to work on logger: creating a UI - running smallLint and fixing code

(*) we'll be expecting results by then ;)

### Here's what I've been up to since the last WhatsUp: SmalltalkHub - continue working on the configuration (it looks like Zinc has a bug with its handling of PUT requests) - fix a bug - add a button so that users can delete a mcz from SmalltalkHub Pharo packaging - send many patches upstream - delete the same patches from Ubuntu packaging scripts - update VM with latest upstream release Lectures - prepare Pharo lecture with Stéphane Books - work on some Jenkins jobs to build books ### What's next, until 2013-05-31 (*): -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm."

Work on Metacello with Dale : - to include Pharo2 and Pharo3 as platforms to test on travis (Metacello is tested with travis CI) - to get MetacelloPreview working on Pharo2 and Pharo3 : we still need some work but not so far! ************************************************************************************** Results for #('BaselineOfMetacello') Test Suite 737 run, 722 passes, 0 skipped, 0 expected failures, 0 failures, 7 errors, 8 unexpected passes **************************************************************************************

### What's next, until 2013-05-31 (*):

Include MetacelloPreview as default Metacello version in Pharo3 Get back on Versionner to use MetacelloPreview

### Here's what I've been up to since the last WhatsUp:

I have been working on the Distributed Issue Tracker. We now have real distribution. I can serve my issues in one issue tracker and then set the url on another image and push and pull issues from / to this image. It has an automatic merge (last one wins), and updates the ui (so that is nice) on both sides.

### What's next, until 2013-05-31 (*):

Main next step is: get the project to be accepted! So please vote in favor of this project. You can find a detailed description at: http://gsoc2013.esug.org/projects/distributed-issue-tracker You can download it and play with it yourself at the smalltalkhub: http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~DiegoLont/LightHouse Because a lot of work still needs to be done. The interesting part is of course getting the distributed aspect work properly, including file uploads, user management and ownership, NAT traversal, merging handling conflicts and integrating in different workflows So if you are a mentor, please vote for this project.
