April 25, 2021

Hello I’m starting to write a Mooc on Advanced OO design. It will be in the same format that the Pharo Mooc. I would like to know if some of you can be interested using part of this mooc in their curriculum. It will help me for a funding agency I’m applying to.

UK Smalltalk User Group meeting - Wednesday April 28th
by Giovanni Corriga April 15, 2021

April 15, 2021

The next meeting of the UK Smalltalk User Group will be on Wednesday, April 28th. Esteban Lorenzano will give us an update on Pharo: What's new? What is updated? What remains? This talk will present (and show working!) the Pharo 9 roadmap and principal changes made to Pharo since the release of the previous version. Esteban studied Computer Sciences at Universidad de Buenos Aires, and worked since 1994 in many object-oriented and low-level technologies in different software companies, serving in various positions from junior programmer to senior architect. In 2007 he co-founded Smallworks to offer Pharo-based agile development projects. Since 2012 he dedicated full time to developing the Pharo code and community. He works for the Pharo Consortium in Lille, France, as lead developer for Pharo and being responsible with the coordination of new releases and the implementation and maintenance of several Pharo libraries.Given the current COVID-19 restrictions, this will be an online meeting from home. If you'd like to join us, please sign up in advance on the meeting's Meetup page ( https://www.meetup.com/UKSTUG/events/cbklbryccgblc/ ) to receive the meeting details. Don’t forget to bring your laptop and drinks!
