Hi Luca, I'm actually doing much of the same at smalltalk.infosnel.nl :-D

Hello, i'm creating a simple homepage (from an HTML template :P), i'm not a good graphic but i think updates must be done in order to gain people.
Right. However, I find most community sites and wiki systems tend to become chaotic: you are looking at the views of various people and they might be contradicting. This is why I choose a static system with user comments and a forum. More interaction may come as needed ;-)
An about page: what's smalltalk, what's GNU smalltalk, its features, purposes and objectives. A community page: simply describe the mailing list and how to contribute to GNU smalltalk trough code and bug reporting
http://smalltalk.infosnel.nl/byExample/development.php . This is uncanny! (if that is how you write that word)
Screenshots page of blox-tk and gtk environments
Good idea, haven't done that yet. And more examples would be good.
Comparisong between existing smalltalk versions
Smalltalk.org does a good job at this, I think.
A CVS page describing how to fetch smalltalk and make diffs.
Don't forget to mention the development page at savannah.
The logo: the smalltalk baloon with the gnu on it
Haha, I had the same problem! Posted about it a week or so ago. I've created a cartoon speech balloon with the gnu in it. However, I'm just the fan site. The actual "GNU Smalltalk logo" should be done by developer's choice. Maybe start a competition?
What are my dreams: 1) Have a good set of libraries
Same here. However, I think the C-bindings should be placed at the background more, simply for portability: writing things in smalltalk will make it more portable. I would love a kind of GTKmm like extension layer written in Smalltalk, keeping library dependencies to a minimal. Maybe even a C to Smalltalk translator or compiler (like the compilers for CLI and .NET).
2) Create scalable and portable applications in smalltalk (GST is the unique choice at the moment)
Yes, I'm trying to get GNU Smalltalk to become _the_ cross platform GTK GUI based application system.
This smalltalk implementation is currently unknown, but it can be really important if we gain community... just this.
I do not think it is an unkown implementation. Smalltalk is simply not really present at the moment. To get the livelyhood we need to create applications the people can use! At the moment, I know of only one "user" application: Bottom feeder. And this is written in Visual Smalltalk! Hope to see your logo soon, Bram _______________________________________________ help-smalltalk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-smalltalk
