Hi, just as an info and in case you missed it but might be interested: Dolphin Smalltalk for Windows 7 will be released open source (MIT licensed) on GitHub today ([1]/[2]). The sources for both the image and the virtual machine will be available. For those who do not know it: Dolphin is a Smalltalk system for Windows provided by Andy Bower and Blaire McGlashan from www.object-arts.com The article from BitwiseMag [3] gives an overview. The existing Dolphin 6.2 codebase was brought by Andy Bower now under Git and compiles completely under VisualStudio Community 2013. This is a new version, Dolphin 7, that is modelled off the previous X6.1 Professional Edition (although you can choose to build Dolphin Community Edition from it if you like). Have fun T.

Hi, Interesting, as there is a lot of good support for Windows in it. How would you see this working along with Pharo? Phil On Tue, Dec 29, 2015 at 2:47 PM, Torsten Bergmann <astares@gmx.de> wrote:

This is REAL good news.
How would you see this working along with Pharo?
I don't see much interaction between both, but I would recommend any Pharo developer to use it for a week or more, the coherence and consistency of its user experience is so good that it raises the bar really high for any other dialect. Bringing back to Pharo some of its ideas is great. Esteban A. Maringolo
