The "deal" is done in the sense that Pharo 2.0 only uses FileSystem. This is the platform developer point of view. Sven, please take note that the deal is not done from the 'User land point' of view. Just recently Pharo 2.0 has gone from alpha to beta. Not to mention the porting status of the packages which build on it. So it is good to have alternatives as Igor points out -- Squeak, Cuis and earlier versions of Pharo. --Hannes > > -- > Sven Van Caekenberghe > http://stfx.eu > Smalltalk is the Red Pill > > > > >
