Hi,
anyone able to tell something about the states of the following projects?
I'm just curious
- if they are dead (if so why)
- if someone is working/plans to work on them actively
- if something is just planned to be replaced in the future with better
projects
Lots of power was invested to start/run projects in Pharo and I want to
understand
if it will be possible to have them out of the box:
1. SCRIPTING
There was/is CORAL (http://rmod.lille.inria.fr/coral/) - a scripting
environment for Pharo. No activity on the list since Nov. 2013.
What is the state of the project? Was it just research or how
can we use todays Pharo 3.0/Pharo 4.0 for scripting. Are there other/new
plans?
2. UI BUILDER TOOL
There was http://www.squeaksource.com/UIBuilder.html marked as
"Failed attempt of develop a UI builder for Pharo-Smalltalk."
Also the "UI Painter" project developed as part of GSOC 2013 for Pharo
based on
Spec. Not updated anymore. http://uipainter-gsoc.over-blog.com with no
activity
since 9/2013.
3. NAMESPACES
Squeak got environments, if I remember correctly there was even code for
Pharo available. Do we plan to have them as well or is there the idea of
a better namespace implementation.
4. TxText
Providing a better text editor for Pharo. What is the state of this?
Thanks
T.
