<body><div style="text-align: left;">I must say, I agree on this. I have looked for this for quite a while and I still have never seen the advantage of Morphic. It just appears to me to be inconsistent, incomplete etc. It looked like a really nice thing for Self, but I don't think you develop exactly the same way in Smalltalk as Self. I have never been a GUI guy, but it seems to me that a nice, clean designed graphic system like Dolphin has can run circles around Morphic. If I'm wrong, please feel free to show me where. I would love to see what Morphic does bring to the table that other GUI frameworks don't.<br></div><br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">> From: tim@rowledge.org<br>> Date: Thu, 5 Jul 2007 13:52:26 -0700<br>> To: squeak-dev@lists.squeakfoundation.org<br>> Subject: Re: methods for license conversion<br>> <br>> I'm rather inclined to the idea that "Morphic Must Die!"<br>> <br>> Making a minimal system - either yor way or Craig's way - present an <br>> opportunity to start from a place with NO constraints arising from a <br>> previous framework that has to be kept limping along<br>> <br>> I would *love* to see a new, clean, designed UI/graphics system <br>> implemented that can take advantage of host windows, Cairo, freetype, <br>> etc. No, I'm *not* offering to design it.<br>> <br>> Come on people, be brave.
