Hi,
I have loaded WebClient from ConfigurationTool on Pharo 2.0. It seems something changed at system so I had some issues while loading the package and fixed it. I would make my fixes public for community. How do it? Does exist any guide? If I right understand this document <http://www.pharo-project.org/community/how-to-contribute> describe contrubuting for Pharo and not applicable for 3dparty packages.
WebClient, like hundreds of others, is indeed a third-party, external package to Pharo. How are these maintained ? By their authors, and in some cases by volunteers. You can certainly discuss about these on the mailing lists and look for help, but you cannot expect the core Pharo community to take responsibility or to have any kind of obligation to act. Now, the original author of WebClient, Andreas Raab, sadly passed away last year. I see that the repository is readonly: http://www.squeaksource.com/WebClient.html If you cannot find anyone to give you write access, your only option would be to fork the code. Regards, Sven PS: I assume you do know that Pharo has out of the box, fully supported, HTTP client and server functionality standard in the image since 1.3, in the form of Zinc HTTP Components (ZnClient, ZnServer, ZnEasy) ? -- Sven Van Caekenberghe Proudly supporting Pharo http://pharo.org http://association.pharo.org http://consortium.pharo.org
