Since about the middle of 2010 I have been actively following Pharo and it has been an amazing time.
These are my highlights, there are probably many others. 0.x became 1.0, then came 1.1 and finally 1.1.1. There has been amazing activity on 1.2. Seaside became 3.0. I learned how to deploy Seaside and manage it in production. I learned how to work efficiently with Monticello and SqueakSource. Hudson integration servers were customized and deployed for various Smalltalk projects and for Pharo itself. I learned how to build my own development and deployment images. I learned how to do load balancing and static content serving for Seaside. I love the Glamorous theme and the improved DejaVuBitmapFonts loader, I like the the Pro theme. I am successfully using Glorp and PostresV2. I am using the Cog VM every day. I simply love developing in Pharo. The Pharo community is just as great, from the leadership to the core developers, the dev image developers, the application and framework developers, those doing documentation, screencasts, help systems, the testers, to the countless people answering questions on this list. Thank you all ! Sven PS: I can't wait for 2011. PPS: Of course, part of the above are results of the greater Smalltalk community. Pharo is my view into this world.
