Excellent I thin that this is important to build a set of nice packages that people can use and enhance over time. > At present I am trying to port under Pharo (or Squeak) an expert system > generator based on fuzzy logic which name is FuzzyWorld and I have already > used for lot of real word applications. > I attach some documentation about a presentation I had at ESUG and of > current version of FuzzyWorld.
