Pharo Association: alone we have little power, but many we are strong
by Stéphane Ducasse Jan. 19, 2013

Jan. 19, 2013

Hi guys Just a point: Join the Pharo association because all together we can get some power. For example, I would like that we brainstorm about what kind of effort the association want to sponsor. - real headless image - other network protocols -… So far we are 35 but I really dream about a moment where we will be much more. If you find some value to Pharo and you want to encourage its evolution, this is simple. Stef
