New Version of Pillar on Windows
by mldavis＠chaparralwest.com March 12, 2017

March 12, 2017

I am trying out the new version of Pillar (build 1940 or 1941) on Windows on Pharo 50770, following the Pillar tutorial in Enterprise Pharo book: I created the new file first.pillar containing: ! Hello World I ran: C:\Users\mldavis\Desktop\mldPillarWorking>Pharo.exe Pillar.image pillar export --to=html first.pillar It created a file named: output.html.json containing: {"content":"<section>\r\n<h1>1. Hello World</h1>\r\n</section>"} It was supposed to be an HTML document as shown in Enterprise Pharo para 14.2 page 213 "5 Minutes Tutorial". Any suggestions what I missed or should do? mike

Moving from Slack to Discord
by Dimitris Chloupis March 9, 2017

March 9, 2017

I have been aware about Discord for some time now , but I never used it because both Pharo and Unreal channels are on Slack. From my small experience with it, it seemed much more superior to Slack with added bonus that is completely free (open source ) and with no restrictions unlike Slack. But something happened suddenly yesterday, I opened Unreal in Slack and it was gone with a notification that they moved to Discord. So I grabbed this opportunity to create a Pharo server you can join here https://discord.gg/F6nAd Discord works as web apps but also you can download as an app for Windows, Macos , iOS and Android. I will be around in Discord because I generally browser Unreal channels. The nice thing about Discord also is that it offers both audio and video chat for free which can work great for Pharo sprints. Anyway there is no harm on testing it.

Voyage and Date
by Hilaire March 9, 2017

March 9, 2017

Hi, Not sure it is related to this: http://forum.world.st/Possible-bug-with-Voyage-Mongo-date-tt4735597.html But a date 1966-2-17 is persisted as a DateAndtime of value 1966-02-16T23:00:00+00:00 in the repository, which when retrieve will then be 1996-16-2, and so on.... Exactly the utc time for a local 1966-17-2T00:00:00+00:00 Could it be the implicated code? : (GratuitousIncompatibilities intToDateAndTime: (GratuitousIncompatibilities dateToMilliseconds: '1966-2-17' asDate)) asDate => 16 FÃ©vrier 1966 And even worst: (GratuitousIncompatibilities intToDate: (GratuitousIncompatibilities dateToMilliseconds: '1966-2-17' asDate)) asDate => 15 FÃ©vrier 1966 Hilaire -- Dr. Geo http://drgeo.eu

Be sure to take some time off to soak up the special atmosphere of its many different districts: Take a stroll to Rue Dansaert, Halles Saint-GÃ©ry, and Place Sainte-Catherine. Head for Saint-Boniface, ChÃ¢telain, or Flagey. In other words, go ahead and relish Brussels, a fine and beautiful city to explore and discover. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information, please visit http://2017.programming-conference.org You can also find us on Twitter (twitter.com/programmingconf) and Facebook (facebook.com/programmingconf) Looking forward to see you in Brussels, Theo D'Hondt (General chair), Wolfgang De Meuter (Organizing chair), Crista Lopes (Program chair), JÃ¶rg Kienzle, Ralf LÃ¤mmel, Hidehiko Masuhara, Tim Molderez, Tobias Pape, and Jennifer Sartor
