Dear Pharoers,

��

I stumbled upon Doru���s (BTW excellent, as usual) presentation on Live Objects at NDC 2014. In there he states ���Pharo is Smalltalk inspired. ��� we want to point ourselves that we are Smalltalk inspired because we want to move towards the future���. This implies three things:

1. Pharo is NOT Smalltalk
2. All Smalltalks are not moving towards the future
3. The Pharo community wants to get divorced from the community that gave them birth

I am wondering whether this is indeed the official position of the Pharo community? And how the Smalltalkers think about it.

��

Cheers

Helge
