Re: [Esug-list] [ANN] soek.goodies.st discontinued

by Francisco Garau

Hi Ernest - honestly, I didn't knew about this very fine project - but you explain very well the reasons that made you take the sad decision to stop the service. It would be great if someone can integrate your simple browser into tODE. I think they could live together very well. I completely agree with you that the documentation should be produced by the community and not a single user. The problem is that there is usually not enough benefit to those producing the documentation. Not sure how others solve the issue. - Francisco PS: tODE has been awarded a prize - check out its video: http://www.esug.org/wiki/pier/Conferences/2011/InnovationTechnologyAwards On Sun, Aug 28, 2011 at 8:35 PM, Ernest Micklei <ernest.micklei(a)gmail.com>wrote: > Hi, > > http://soek.goodies.st was launched at November 13, 2009 to fill in the > need from Smalltalk developers to have online , searchable documentation for > various open source Smalltalk projects in a similar style. > > At least for a few months, the site was being updated with interesting > projects to explore.

[ANN] soek.goodies.st discontinued

by Ernest Micklei

Hi, http://soek.goodies.st was launched at November 13, 2009 to fill in the need from Smalltalk developers to have online , searchable documentation for various open source Smalltalk projects in a similar style. At least for a few months, the site was being updated with interesting projects to explore. Having Seaside docs and code easy accessible from a browser helped me while developing applications in the past. The XStreams project even lead to a new feature, the separation of public and private classes and methods. However, the process of updating or extending the site with new versions and other projects was limited by my own effort, time and interest. Currently, it is not possible for others to submit or even update their project (Monticello or VW Store based). Having access to outdated docs and source code kind of invalidates the site as it is now. Perhaps a better approach is to have developers produce, update and even host their own documentation. Something like that should be community driven to make it work. The source code for the generator is written in VisualWorks Smalltalk, is open-source MIT licensed and is available in the Cincom Public Store (Soek-All) including the CodeHtmlHighlighting package. Drop me an email if you need assistance to get started and feel free to improve or extend it. The site will be accessible for a limited time on http://soek.goodies.st.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html Happy Smalltalking, ^ Ernest

[ANN] LatAm Squeaksource Mirror online again

by Johan Fabry

Hi all, I'm happy to announce that the Latin American public, read-only Squeaksource mirror is again up and running. (We are bringing the contents up to date right now, it should be competely up-to-date in about 5 hours ...) The URL is: http://www.dsal.cl/squeaksource/ Note that you can use this mirror *in a completely transparent fashion*. We have worked out a solution to the privacy issues raised by the first iteration of our mirror. I would like to emphasize that private data has never been present on the mirror, only the name of private projects was accessible. TECHNICAL DETAILS BELOW. Please redistribute this announcement! (below is mainly a repeat of the body of my previous mail) MOTIVATION: For us, Switzerland is a long way and the connection to Squeaksource has always been painfully slow. We've set up this mirror to help to address this, and I imagine that it will be of use not only for the Chileans but also other countries in latin america, which is why I am announcing it here. ITS TRANSPARENT: I've worked out a way to make the use of this mirror transparent when using Pharo 1.3: you just use monticello as always, and have a setting to redirect loads from Squeaksource to wherever you want. I have successfully loaded Moose and Seaside from the mirror using this package, so it should work for you. And I can tell you, it was blazingly fast: Seaside loaded in 5m45, and most of the time was spent compiling ... ;-) So try the mirror and the package out, send me your comments, we want to work on this to make Squeaksource a better experience for everybody. HOW TO USE from Pharo 1.3: - Get the redirection package from http://www.squeaksource.com/MonticelloRedirect - To load from the mirror instead of from Squeaksource, do-it of the following: MRManager redirectFrom: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/' to: 'http://www.dsal.cl/squeaksource/'. - To remove this redirection: MRManager removeFrom: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/'. - See comments of MRManager for more info. MRManager list can be useful at some times. - Only 2 classes, < 10 methods, not counting accessors. The trick is the use of MethodWrappers. - I did not test this in Squeak or other versions of Pharo. Feel free to try it out in your environment and send me patches if needed. - There is no UI, contributions are welcome!! DETAILS ON THE MIRROR - It's a full copy of Squeaksource, updated daily. - The mirror is read-only: if you want to make a commit you still have to do it in Squeaksource. This is to avoid all the complications of distributed writes. - Updates happen once a day, before midnight Chilean time. Updates take typically (up till now) 200 minutes (!), average download speed here is 200KB/s :-( - Lukas Renggli pointed out that the Squeaksource sitemap file provides a list of projects.

[ANN] PDF 4 Smalltalk

by Christian Haider

I am proud to announce an open source PDF implementation. I will give a talk about this at ESUG (on Wednesday, 10:30, according to current schedule). The presentation will be available at Origo (see below) after the talk. I just published the bundles to the Cincom public store: - Fonts Development - PDF Development It is developed in VisualWorks 7.8 and should work with older versions. If not, please give me a note. The bundle comment of {PDF Development}: 8<------------------------ Read and write PDF files. Support for PDF as defined by the ISO standard PDF 32000-1:2008 (see http://www.adobe.com/devnet/pdf/pdf_reference.html) Look at Document class in Package [PDF Development] to find simple demos to get you started. Best load order for development: 1. bundle {Values Development} 2. bundle {Fonts Development} 3. bundle {PDF Development} See also the project site at Origo: http://pdf4smalltalk.origo.ethz.ch/ ---------------->8 Happy hacking, Christian

[ANN] Fuel release version 1.6

by Martin Dias

Hello! I want to announce the new release version number 1.6 of Fuel, a binary serialization framework for Pharo that provides extremely fast deserialization. More information on our home page<http://rmod.lille.inria.fr/web/pier/software/Fuel>. Again, I thank ESUG for sponsoring me through the SummerTalk<http://www.esug.org/wiki/pier/Promotion/SummerTalk/SummerTalk2011>program. You can download this version in Pharo 1.2.1 with: Gofer new squeaksource: 'Fuel'; package: 'ConfigurationOfFuel'; load. ((Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfFuel) project version: '1.6') load. This version does not add any new concrete functionality but has two main achievements: a performance improvement and a design clean up. Many changes included in this release are part of a design clean up. They are a necessary step forward to new functionalities that are coming soon. They make code more understandable. They enable simpler extension. Happily they also helped to improve serialization performance by reducing unnecessary interactions. And it is specially important a bottleneck in graph analysis stage we have successfully attacked, obtaining great results. Details: - Removed explicit references to cluster classes scattered around the system. For example, in previous versions Float>>fuelCluster has an explicit reference to FLFloatCluster. This version replaces this by a double dispatch interaction. - Clusters: Better reification. Removed annoying IDs. Removed Singleton instance creation mechanism, now mappers manage uniqueness in a better way. - Mappers: They were simplified. New mapping machanism inspired on Chain of Responsibility pattern. The global objects detection has been optimized considerably. - Analyzer: Part of its behavior and state has been moved to a new abstraction called 'clusterization'. Best regards, Martín Dias

Dear Juraj, your help with videoing the talks will be useful. I must agree with Marcus - to set up live streaming at this point would require someone with strong background in it, I think.

Re: [Esug-list] DLC in Edinburgh?

by Niall Ross

Dear Bernat, yes, we'll see if we persuade some of them to come to our Thursday day. Their schedule is now beginning to show talks against Friday afternoon; they obviously go in for a very late "finalise schedule" approach. We'll see what's on offer yet nearer the time. Anyone who is staying long enough on Friday, and not in the Seaside sprint or otherwise occupied, could go to any of them if they wanted. And anyone who's around at the right time on Friday afternoon could certainly offer to repeat their conference talk - or do a follow-on. I _might_ do so myself. Just one of the many "also going on in Edinburgh" things that can enhance your stay - this one of course, highly relevant in subject and conveniently close in time and space.

DLC in Edinburgh?

Hi, does anyone know if this may be interesting? http://www.dynamiclanguages.co.uk/dlc2011/ I've checked the talk schedule, but it's nearly empty... So, it seems there is a dynamic languages conference right after ESUG at the same city... it feels like maybe someone could submit a talk proposal there too :) Cheers, -- Bernat Romagosa.

[ANN] SmallHarbour ALPHA release

by laurent laffont

Hi, We are pleased to announce the first version of SmallHarbour. SmallHarbour is a public fork of SeasideHosting, running on top of Pharo, Seaside and Cog - driven by Romain Verduci and Laurent Laffont for ESUG SummerTalk 2011. The main goals are: - people should be able to (easily) setup their own web application deployment platform - provide a public service for hosting web applications. - be able to setup a web application without Smalltalk knowledge in one click. Actually SmallHarbour support Pharo and Seaside, but we expect to support Iliad and AidaWeb framework soon. When an account is created, you can go in Home and click on "Create blog" to deploy a Pier image. More templates to come. The alpha public server is at: http://www.alpha.smallharbour.org. Feel free to upload images. BE CAREFUL: that may be deleted / lost without warning. Do not put sensible informations. To setup your own SmallHarbour, - read documentation at http://project.alpha.smallharbour.org/seaside/pier/Documentation - see screencast http://project.alpha.smallharbour.org/seaside/pier/blog/2011-08-11 Feedback is welcome. We still need to find bugs, fix them and learn. Romain will present SmallHarbour at ESUG. Thanks ESUG, Adrian and Netstyle for sharing code, Mariano for help, Claire and Patrick who are working on visual identity. Cheers, Laurent Laffont - @lolgzs <http://twitter.com/#!/lolgzs> Pharo Smalltalk Screencasts: http://www.pharocasts.com/ Blog: http://magaloma.blogspot.com/ Developer group: http://cara74.seasidehosting.st

Smalltalk lecture Saturday 20th of August at ESUG

by Stéphane Ducasse

Hi Friends please distribute that widely I will give a free lecture Discovering Smalltalk Smalltalk is a pure and elegant object language. This lectures will cover the fundamental aspects of Smalltalk: syntax, semantics, and key aspects of the system. Doing so we will also revise the real semantics of self/super. We will show the power of polymorphism in action by simply learning from the system. Finally we will go into more design aspect again based on the systems. As a bonus we will start the lecture with a 15 min presentation of Seaside a powerful web framework for dynamic web application. This lecture may be followed by a lecture on more advanced object-oriented design: law of demeter, encapsulation, multiple interface of classes, composition vs. inheritance Starting time: 9h30 Closing: 16h00 Location: http://www.esug.org/wiki/pier/Conferences/2011/The-Venue-in-Edinburgh Bio: He is expert in object-oriented language design, dynamic languages, reflective programming, language semantics as well as reengineering, program analysis, visualizations, software metrics. Recently he worked on traits, composable method groups, and this work got some impact. Traits have been introduced AmbiantTalk, Pharo, Perl-6, PHP 5.4 and Squeak. They influenced Scala and Fortress SUN Microsystems. Stephane is one of the developer of Pharo (http://www.pharo.project.org/) an open-source language inspired by Smalltalk. He is one of the core developer of Moose, an open-source reengineering environment (http://moose.unibe.ch/) He is the president of the European Smalltalk User Group and organize a yearly international conference on Smalltalk.
