A ideal all purpose system IMHO is Pharo Kernel as base, with all new ideas
Pharo bring us.
Cuis is the best implementation of Morph, but lacks compatibility.
You need re think all and make from zero
Squeak is a mess, no doubt about.
But have necessary backwards compatibility (for me).
I can't do Morphic games without grab Morphs with Halo.
A simple thing like my SmartTrashMorph ported to Cuis or to Pharo takes too
much time to do.
For young people like most here caring about Web 2.0, Pharo is the answer
and Markus is right, we need focus on better Pharo.
But for old people like me, need responses NOW , and know wish more as Web
2.0.
When GsoC ends, several projects give me 95% of info for learn how to build
my ideal system.
As PharoKernel builder and developer, I ask for tutorials for fools.
