Hi Richard,

I���d like to invite you to refrain yourself from posting such off-topic messages in the future.

This list is for people to *ask* questions about Pharo. Not to diffuse any kind of propaganda (pharo related or not).
You���re not asking a question about Pharo, nor answering a question about Pharo.
So I personally find all these emails off-topic and uninteresting.

I have the feeling this list has been lately flooded with such off-topic messages.
And this only chases off this list people really interested about the main topic of the list (like me).

Maybe this shows this competition / PR campaign you���re running needs another channel?
I know you don���t agree, but I invite you to read here the **purpose** of this list, just for respect to people subscribed to it:

Thanks for your comprehension,
Guille

So this forum is only for Pharo newcomers who have questions? Seems rather
limiting.

When I join other language forums, I look for information about the language
I'm investigating as a newcomer. This can include the language's
capabilities, limitations, real-world usage, new tools, philosophical basis,
and so on. General information across a broad spectrum of topics.

And, yes, even trivia and factoids that I might find interesting. I
appreciate that you don't find this interesting, but other forum visitors
may.

If the Pharo users forum wants to, it could do something as draconian as
StackOverflow does: put a tight leash on submitted questions and boot out
everybody who doesn't comply. This is one reason I don't go to StackOverflow
very often ��� they aren't welcoming to people who just want to learn general
things.

I've told my readers that the Pharo users forum is welcoming. Please don't
make a liar out of me.

I'm actually quite amazed by their effort. They surpassed my
expectations.

At the risk of sounding immodest, I think this is a terrific way to
promote Smalltalk (Pharo). I think the video is an absolute blast.

Richard
