[ANN] SmallHarbour project
by Romain Verduci May 17, 2011

May 17, 2011

We actually have www.seasidehosting.st which can only be used for non-commercial applications. I am Romain Verduci, a french student in Information System (Master degree) who likes smalltalk since I have discovered it last year through Pharo. Today, I participate to weekly coding-dojos with other smalltalk fans (http://cara74.seasidehosting.st/) I am lucky to participate to ESUG SummerTalk this year with Laurent Laffont as mentor to develop SmallHarbour project. With the support of ESUG and under the ESUG SummerTalk 2011, we want to provide: - a simple platform to host commercial smalltalk web applications. - an easy way for everyone (and enterprise) to deploy their own hosting platform. - for the non-smalltalkers, provide ready Pier images to deploy basic blogs, event presentations and more. SmallHarbour has started from the actual Seaside Hosting code base. Our first objective is to port it to Pharo / Cog / Seaside 3 and document. For more informations about the project, you can follow us on www.smallharbour.org. If you have any needs or ideas in order to improve our project vision, we will be happy to collect them. We will setup community tools (issue tracker, public repositories, doc ....) when the exams period is over :) Best regards Romain Verduci Student in Information System (Master degree) - IMUS, IAE Savoie Mont-Blanc - Annecy Tel. : +33659892353 Mail : contact(a)romain-verduci.com

Something like Prezi on Pharo/Squeak
by Offray Vladimir Luna CÃ¡rdenas May 17, 2011

May 17, 2011

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi All, I'm thinking in making something like Prezi[1] in Pharo/Squeak (now I'm using Pharo to learn because I like more the dev experience, but I'm only starting with the Pharo By Example Book). Prezi is a program for zoomable presentations but is not free software and it uses a non open format for storing data. I have used previously[2] but these two issues (mainly the last one) have making me desist on future uses. [1] http://prezi.com/ [2] http://prezi.com/7sp0ejyi7lpw/nomadas-digitales-aprendizaje-y-la-cultura-al… I think that the Pharo/Squeak is the proper environment for a multimedia rich and Zoomable interface for presentations and eventually it could be a killer app for Smalltalk. For the moment I'm making some test with Sozi[3] to use free software and the SVG open format, but the editing experience is awful compared with the one of Prezi and is really difficult to make some things like zooming inside and already zoomed frame. [3] http://sozi.baierouge.fr/wiki/en:tutorial As a newbie, I think that the first think to play with will be importing some svg into Pharo/Squeak, and see if is possible to make zoom in and see how rendering work in this environment. I know that there is a project called Morphic 3 that is working in zoomable Smalltalk interfaces, but I don't know how much advanced it is or how difficult is to implement this. Any advice on this ideas or pointer on how to help will be really appreciated Cheers, Offray -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJN0o1UAAoJEGiex2828ICwJPUH+gPkaS0gDF/Pe/qVDGpcCexg s6iKRRL8q8XIxTc+0OP0eQqh6bd8MpH6Hnv2MQZwfp5o9apcxu6alvJxoxEOrgg9 frsuyG0gXi6J5xuzGPVV36VDShjP6spyPvdLEGHx4LJOkvT0rMX4I3ok4ktZbg54 5dsmY8foq0omPfN39yH/XZYSEk01xzvXjj2KSAOwBNv7jA5MCe5rz4XwjBzJVqDs FZSOqraNdG3WMI+Xi+Bdn2WJdY6m2z84viyCA767GVi9Pdlacm9G9wlcBaX5rn73 sdSOKNslhvbUpkElKMrvjcg6bxRZ3FzW1/PL5Ets0sSia/E+ejc9gwp7N9fJrgE= =Fvgs -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

[ANN] PharoDev-1.3-13201
by Mariano Martinez Peck May 16, 2011

May 16, 2011

Hi. IMPORTANT: This is not the final 1.3 release, it just one simple snapshot and one point. This image is based in PharoCore 1.3 13201 and includes also several fixes for the external packages like OB. Thanks to Fernando the Transcript is now much better. The image is here: https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/28547/Pharo-1.3-13201.zip And it was build by Hudson: https://pharo-ic.lille.inria.fr/hudson/view/Pharo/job/Pharo%201.3/150/ Nile was removed from dev image which means there are only 3 failing tests :) Best regards, -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com
