[Pharo-project] Optimization of PharoCore File Downloads
When I need a new Pharo image I typically go to the files listing at https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/?group_id=1299 where I find all the core images for Pharo 1.0 and 1.1. The problem is that it is really time consuming to find the right section on this large page :-) - Would it be possible to reorder the sections "Pharo-Core 1.0" and "Pharo-Core 1.1" to appear on top? - Or, put an index of all sections on top of that page? - Or, use some unambiguous spelling for the section titles (like "[PharoCore1.0]" and "[PharoCore1.1]") so that the sections can be quickly found using Ctrl+F without getting matches in the filenames? Just a few ideas to make this a bit easier. Lukas -- Lukas Renggli www.lukas-renggli.ch
I have the same problem... What would be nice is to have a "symbolic" link to the most recent version. For Pharo 1.0 this is easy because it does not change anymore. For 1.1 the link would need to update whenever there is a new version. Like this we could link these images from the website directly and people wouldn't have to go to gforce. Is this possible?

I **know**
- Would it be possible to reorder the sections "Pharo-Core 1.0" and "Pharo-Core 1.1" to appear on top?
The people of the forge want to interview us to improve (or rewrite from scratch)
- Or, put an index of all sections on top of that page?
- Or, use some unambiguous spelling for the section titles (like "[PharoCore1.0]" and "[PharoCore1.1]") so that the sections can be quickly found using Ctrl+F without getting matches in the filenames?
I can try BTW I guess that you can try too since you are a member. Can you tell me if you succeed to log in?

Indeed, that works. I wasn't aware of that. It doesn't seem to be possible to reorder the categories (they just appear in random order), but I renamed them as suggested. Searching for "[Ph" should bring you to the interesting parts. That already improves the situation. Lukas -- Lukas Renggli www.lukas-renggli.ch
Excellent! Yes this system so bad :) They know it I do not even have to tell them they see it in my eyes. Stef On Apr 16, 2010, at 10:29 AM, Lukas Renggli wrote:
