Re: [Pharo-users] Intro to git-only Pharo

by Stephane Ducasse

Joachim many people are using Pharo to develop ***COMPLEX*** Pharo applications and it works. They use monticello and metacello and it works. So you do not have to have Github to make great software in Pharo. Now in addition many people are using github to build complex applications with github.

Re: [Pharo-users] [ann] bloc & cairo+morphic

by Alain Plantec

Hello Doru, all, Iâm really happy to see Bloc progresses. Even Iâm not active since more than one year, Bloc is still an important project for me. but let me complete this short historical presentation a little bit. Bloc is a project that I initiated in 2013 in collaboration with RMOD following experiments made around the ROME project. The idea was to completely revisit the 2D framework of Pharo to address Morphic limits. Following an invitation of the Software Composition Group (thanks to Oscar Nierstrasz and to Doru here), I presented the first version of Bloc at Bern (March, 2015), then Doru and Aliaksel joined the project. One year ago, during his PhD at Brest, Glenn Cavarle produced a new version of the Bloc infrastructure that is now the one used together with the layouting system that was implemented by Aliaksel. Please, do not use the humane assessment web site but the github project one instead. I will restart working on Bloc/Brick soon in the context of a project that we recently signed with the Thales company.
