Dear Friends The Pharo consortium http://consortium.pharo.org is launching a new program in direction to academic partners: teachers, Universities and research institutes. We realized that the advantages/duties to be an academic member were unclear. We really want to build a strong community. http://files.pharo.org/consortium/Membership%20Agreement%20for%20Academic%20... Here are the key facts extracted from the document. Here are the main advantages as an academic partner: - Direct access to Pharo core developers via an automatic subscription to a specific mailing list. - Access to Pharo documents and courses. - Its logo posted on the Pharo Website Academic pages. - The possibility to propose and participate in actions. Here are the main duties (which you are already doing): - Put a link to Pharo Consortium Website from its institutional website. - When using Pharo to teach, create web pages with document courses related to Pharo. - Provide Inria with an annual report of at most half a page of its actions to promote and sustain Pharo. As member of the Pharo Consortium, the Academic Partner shall make its best efforts to: - Give courses on Pharo or related topics to its students - Participate to the development of open source software libraries in Pharo - Participate to selected Pharo mailing lists : pharo-dev@lists.pharo.org and/or pharo-users@lists.pharo.org - Participate in the authoring of open-source books on Pharo and related topics. We really hope that you will register and help us making Pharo grow and be a really cool and friendly ecosystem. The Pharo Board.
