And there lies your problem. You dont agree with me and I dont agree with you and the next guy wont agree with either of us.
But you both agree on: "Pharo needs a GUI framework" , no?
But there are many people out there that love Spec and Bloc may be proven an excellent replacement for Morphic who knows , we definitely wont know if everyone start focusing on Spec alone.
It is not the goal of Spec to replace Morphic.And "Spec or Bloc" is not the question. Spec without the UI elements is pretty useless.

All of the above frameworks have tons of users so one thing that this shows us is that fragmentation is really beneficial to a community. The reason is simple,
GUI is so complex subject but there will never be one ring to rule them all. Many have tried, all of them have failed.
I donât agree. If we would have more than 10 developers working on GUI frameworks in Pharo this may be the case. But we donât have this number. If we are very lucky we may have 4.
I would rather have 4 persons pulling a large cart in the same direction, instead of 4 of them pulling their own cart (1/4th the size) in more-or-less the same direction (if at all) as the other guys. In the first case a lot more progress will be made. If there is something wrong with the cart, fix it! Do not waste all this time building your own.
