Re: [Pharo-users] Glorp v130 call for testing

by Alistair Grant

Hi Everyone, There haven't been any complaints about the merged version, and Glorp fails to load #development on Pharo 7, so I'm planning to update ConfigurationOfGlorp to: - Work on Pharo7 when given the #development symbolic version - Make Glorp-AlistairGrant.130 the stable version - up from Glorp-HerbyVojcik.127. If I don't hear any objections in the next couple of days I'll make the change.

Re: [Pharo-users] tonel how to

by Peter UhnÃ¡k

Hi, Iceberg will autodetect the format, or you can use monticello with "tonel://" scheme (in P61 you will need newest iirc metacello). If you want to convert a repo (or create a separate repo in tonel format so you can try it out), I have a migration tool https://github.com/peteruhnak/tonel-migration On Thu, Nov 30, 2017 at 9:22 PM, Juraj Kubelka <juraj.kubelka(a)icloud.com> wrote: > Hi Hilaire, > > I have been playing with it recently.

Newsletter content / editors wanted

by Marcus Denker

Hi, You might know that we are sending out a monthly pharo newsletter, it contains larger âmini articlesâ (e.g. announcements) and small one-line notes for blog posts, new libraries, things like that. Here is the archive: https://us11.campaign-archive.com/home/?u=6f667565c2569234585a7be77&id=0486… <https://us11.campaign-archive.com/home/?u=6f667565c2569234585a7be77&id=0486…> Target audience are especially those who no follow the mailing list, but I think it is interesting even for us as it is easy to not see all the interesting news. If you have content: please send it to me, I collect things over a month and then we put the newletter together from that. This can be: - small (half page) articles abut *your* project! - an interesting library you found - a blog post you have written (or read) People can even take over for a complete month and do e.g. a themed newsletter focusing on one aspect or project.
