Yes, we were discussing that on Friday.... the developres of Rascal are using it: http://www.rascal-mpl.org/
We (or I) would have to propose a new site and we would need people from Pharo AND Squeak (and hopefully other dialects too) to come aboard to promote the site. The entire process of creation is explained here: http://area51.stackexchange.com/faq
But would multi dialect not be very confusing? Marcus -- Marcus Denker -- http://marcusdenker.de

Agreed. I was only thinking that it might be hard to get enough people for launching the site if we restrict it to pharo. Maybe we could start a poll

What do you mean by that? I'm already using SO and the Pharo/ST question density is very low and there don't seem to be many of us asking questions about Pharo either on SO (?). I fear that questions might get lost in the stream of questions on other topics. But I'm certainly willing to give SO a try with Pharo. We just would need everybody else to do the same. Having our own Pharo site however, would be a better incentive to move away from the mailinglist I think. Max On 15.05.2012, at 09:35, Stéphane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse@inria.fr> wrote:

I think it is better to ask more questions on Stack Overflow (SO) instead of making yet another such site. On SO also to spread the voice about Pharo around! We are just too low in popularity on SO and isolating on yet another site will isolate us even more. To be notified on new Smalltalk or Pharo question there, just click on each tag and subscribe to the RSS feed of that tag. Best regards Janko Dne 15. 05. 2012 09:45, piše Max Leske:

maybe, though I think SO is rather messy :) for as long as google finds it, the place doesn't really matter. Follow the proposal! http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/40717/pharo?referrer=gXC4FWspxSudZ...
