Yes sure there is a lot of trash in the SqueakSource repository. Maybe we could organize the repository in the front page the way github (http://github.com/explore ) are doing. What is important to see are the most active projects ;-) A lot of functionalities could be copied from github i guess. What could be nice also is to be able to see a MC repository as a git repository. I dunno if it's feasible, but it could give a lot of exposure in the open-source community to Squeak/Pharo/Smalltalk projects than today. Thank you for what you are doing for the community. -- Serge Stinckwich UMI UMMISCO 209 (IRD/UPMC), Hanoi, Vietnam Every DSL ends up being Smalltalk http://doesnotunderstand.org/ _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project
