I think it's very important to have local Smalltalk mailing lists. It's easier for beginners to speak in their native language. Not every one is a core Pharo developpers, some people are just plain users that want to expose their problems. In french, we have only one mailing with all the Smalltalk flavors. You can talk also about specific needs for example the translation of books in your language or some local events. -- Serge Stinckwich UMI UMMISCO 209 (IRD/UPMC), Hanoi, Vietnam Smalltalkers do: [:it | All with: Class, (And love: it)] http://doesnotunderstand.org/ _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project
