Pharo now looks more and more what I dreamed about already back in the Squeak
days.
The toyish look is gone, the system gets cleaner and cleaner. Lots of tests,
nice libs,
CI infrastructure, easy image handling/downloading with launcher
Still we are not there...

I wonder how we can all come together again. It would help both sides to grow.
Squeak facilities could sit on top of Pharo. Maybe with a cleaner morphic like
Bloc.
Phratch shows that this is possible.
Things I currently miss in Pharo that were cool to use and demo in Squeak:
- Support for more media and devices (video, mp3, sound recording/replaying,
cam, joystick, ...)
- Collaboration tools:
- Shared worlds/remote views similar to Nebraska (to collaborate on code
or remote interact with an image) and Telemorphic
- Text and Audio Chat application, possibly video chat
- Sending morphs over the network (using the Badge morph)
- Shared world (Morphic) projects/Image segments
- Bookmorphs (putting some text and graphic, saving as *.book, loading later
again or sending to others)
Also it would be supercool if Pharo images would run on Berts SqueakJS...
