Excerpts from Serge Stinckwich's message of 2015-02-11 15:13:22 +0100:
with Uko, we are considering submitting the Pharo project as a mentoring organization for GSOC 2015: We will need your help in order to find ideas of projects. Is there any effort make a joint application under esug or some other umbrella? We are under the umbrella of the Pharo Consortium.
i am aware of that. i was wondering if there are efforts beyond pharo that would allow squeak projects as well? i believe more projects and mentors would make a gsoc application more successful.
there are a few projects on labs.fossasia.org that might fit:
Create a file editor and asset manager solution with smalltalk Create a smalltalk application for offline text search emulate a PostgreSQL server in Smalltalk Smalltalk SQL Parser & Evaluator
i also discussed with craig the idea of doing something with his context work on pharo. essentially i'd like to use context as a tool to remote manage images. a gsoc project could be to work out how to set up context for that usecase (while helping to make sure context works with pharo)
You are from FOSSASIA ? Didn't know you have some interests in Smalltalk ;-)
well, my interest in smalltalk (and pharo) is personal. FOSSASIA is promoting Free Software in asia and as such is supporting projects and developers in asia. since i got involved with FOSSASIA it just made sense to list all my projects there.
If some of your projects are related to Pharo, we could post also your projects on our lists.
the 4 projects listed above are based on pharo. the two SQL projects are not mine btw, but are the result of me inviting mentors on the pharo and squeak lists last month to VALS Semester of Code. VALS Semester of Code btw, is something pharo (and smalltalk) could participate in too in the next round. greetings, martin. -- eKita - the online platform for your entire academic life -- chief engineer eKita.co pike programmer pike.lysator.liu.se caudium.net societyserver.org secretary beijinglug.org mentor fossasia.org foresight developer foresightlinux.org realss.com unix sysadmin Martin Bähr working in china http://societyserver.org/mbaehr/
