Hi Nico, SmalltalkHub is nicely done and I like the idea of combining Amber on the client side with Smalltalk on the server side. I think one of the main problem before contributing to a project is accessibility and visibility of the project: I know that your project is not only running on smalltalkhub.com but also the code for the implementation lives there. Its good that you eat your own dog food - but maybe a hurdle to contribute. So I dont know: - if others know that the code is there (a list of projects hosted on SmalltalkHub is as you know still missing) - on which Pharo version it is running - how to easily load it into a recent Pharo image - what other things one needs to run it locally (Mongo?) and fix or modify it Also the page found by Google: http://www.objectfusion.fr/en/smalltalkhub.html tells me nothing where to get the code, how to start. It only says "work in progress". After more googling I can find a link www.smalltalkhub.com/user/NicolasPetton/SmalltalkHub which is NOT working! After more and more googling I found out from a twitter link that the code is there: http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~NicolasPetton/SmalltalkHub I know it is a chicken and egg problem since all these infos will be on SmalltalkHub when implemented. But these days it is very hard to find and get startet. My proposal: ============ Since Metacello is standard these days I would really welcome a "ConfigurationOfSmalltalkHub" in MetacelloRepository which would: - allow the code to load - allow to see which Pharo version is used - allow to run it locally to do modifications - allow to follow stable releases and development progress just by looking into the configuration and in then end allow to contribute to the project.
