Sounds interesting: http://www.stic.st/conferences/stic13/abstracts/modtalk-experience-report/ John Sarkela and Steve Jarvis talk about Modtalk at STIC13. Anyone knows more?
They presented it today. What I gathered is that it's a extra-curricular project for students to "get their hands dirty" after going through his Programming Languages class. One aim is to make a small, tiny, file-based Smalltalk project (without use of an image). It seemed pretty rough, which is perfect for students to have something difficult to wrangle with. The conference had a fantastic first day. So many well-known Smalltalkers are here -- Allen and Rebecca Wirfs Brock, Dave Thomas, Dan Ingalls and many more..

Well, if "doing" includes traveling across the world, getting up on a stage and talking about and promoting it, then I'd say all of them. Besides that, I have no idea what they're doing with their time. On Mon, Jun 10, 2013 at 11:41 PM, Stéphane Ducasse <Stephane.Ducasse@inria.fr> wrote:
