Exact. This is why I wrote a chapter on Installer for the new pharo book :) > I *also* agree with Pharo people that hey, Pharo is a fork - we/you > can > do whatever we/you like!

We just started to move and to move at our pace with a shared vision built on our past experience and communication. Even our name and logo means what we want to build: a warm beam of light in dark tempest nights where any Smalltalker can find a place if he wants. _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project
