Vanessa can you log all the questions that you ask yourself? Because I will take the slides of igor and turn them into a first draft of a chapter. And I would like to see if it answers or not your question.
Can you also log what you learn because we could pair write the chapter after and this would be also good for your cv :) Imagine a chapter in a book with Ze great Stef. Incredible isn't :) Stef On Nov 28, 2012, at 9:46 PM, Vanessa Peña Araya wrote: > On 11/28/2012 05:11 PM, Igor Stasenko wrote: >> On 28 November 2012 20:01, Vanessa Peña Araya <[email protected]> wrote: >>> Stef >>> >>> I was trying Athens on Pharo 2.0 today (I really like Pharo 2.0!! <3), but I >>> had a couple of problems with the examples.
