[Pharo-project] Singing praise: Pharo is awesome!
I was just doing some coding in my favorite dev environment today and I must say: Pharo is excellent!! Seriously, nice work by all of you. You have all been cranking forward; progress has been frequent, which makes it both exciting and comforting. I also realized today that the performance was weighing on me and making me not want to use Pharo recently; now it feels meaningfully better for coding. There are many issues to be dealt with yet(*), however, there are many that have been dealt with. Numerous things, like the NetNameResolver (and associated issues), have been working for me on a Mac out-of-the-box, even though there are issues on other platforms -- i started to pick through the code today to get up to speed, but... just cannot invest any serious time right now. I hope to be a contributor later this year. (*) no details available here... this thread is simply a song of praise. Nice work. Thank You all for your effort and contributions! -Cam

That's was exactly why I suggested to make the default Pharo images faster(without the slow stuff). I saw a lot of people with the same thoughts. Yes. Me too. They are making an excellent work!!! best, Mariano

Stef & Pharo'ers, You are right. And I feel bad that I did not see one of your emails (until yesterday) asking me to fill in the details on one defect 2 months back. My apologies. I will get better at helping... in a couple of months. Until then I can only give you praise! Sincerely, Cameron Sanders On Jul 20, 2009, at 2:27 AM, Stéphane Ducasse wrote:
