[Seaside] SqueakSource

[Tudor Girba]

Hi Sebastian,

First, squeaksource is free and it is hosted for free, too (as the main page says, squeaksource.com is hosted free of charge by the Software Composition Group, University of Bern).

Second, it is old: it dates from 2004:
http://www.squeaksource.com/ss.html

This was a great piece of infrastructure built by some cool guys, but now it shows its age:

Please do not blame neither the authors, nor the current people that are still trying to keep it alive: basically, a couple of brave PhD students that maintain the infrastructure (not the code) in their spare time (namely, Jorge Ressia and Fabrizio Perin).

There is at least one other option that should be more stable:
http://ss3.gemstone.com/

And of course, in the meantime, we are all waiting for:

So, all in all, please refrain from these kinds of remarks.


Cheers,
Doru
