Pharo VM for Raspbian (or Linux-ARM, for what matters)

by Bernat Romagosa

Hi list, I recently read there is a compiled version of a Pharo VM for Raspbian, but the link provided in the blog post is broken ( https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/view/RaspberryPi/job/RaspberryPi-Cro… ). Any chance to get it from somewhere else? Thanks! -- Bernat Romagosa.

Multiple Browsers

by Thomas Worthington

Is it expected that two browsers open on the same class don't reflect the same state if one of them is used to edit the class? I'm sure this used to work, although I might be getting mixed up with Emacs. TW
