I started using Squeak only a few months back, though I have been in systems and network programming for over two decades. The learning curve in Squeak is a bit steep because of two reasons a) it is not just an IDE but a whole computing env (like GNU/Linux) and, b) It suffers from extreme monoculture - it is 100% Smalltalk. So frameworks take much longer to develop and get into the basic image. But once you get past the initial misdirections and hurdles, it is a nice environment to "think" in. > Have you done anything with Seaside / web/remote programming in general? > Have you used SeasideHosting (www.seasidehosting.st) ? So far, I haven't strayed much beyond the core classes and Morphic in Squeak, so I am afraid I can't help you much. But there are many others in its mailing list who could help you out. Enjoy ..
