Interesting!<br>
<br>
I am working on an object oriented programming paradigm (as opposed to
the class oriented programming of Simula, C++, Java and others).<br>
The goal is readable code.<br>
This work may or may not be relevant to what you have in mind.<br>
A first shot at the programming paradigm is ready with its roles and
classes and is documented, see<br>
see this book chapter at <a
href="http://folk.uio.no/trygver/2007/babyUML.pdf">http://folk.uio.no/trygver/2007/babyUML</a><a
href="http://folk.uio.no/trygver/2007/babyUML.pdf">.pdf</a> or my home
page<br>
<br>
A first read-only version of this IDE is emerging. I plan to demo it in
Bergen at the end of the month.<br>
A Role isA Trait enabling classless coding of the system interaction
methods, <br>
A role is represented in the code as a Pragma, so the Trait isn't quite
stateless<br>
I have not needed to change Morphic or any other fundamental feature)<br>
<br>
I hope to have a first bleeding edge version of this IDE ready in the
not too distant future so that you can play with it.<br>
<br>
In haste<br>

Subject: [UI] Call to arms
Right, I think we want to improve Squeak in terms of user interaction.
This may be far-ranging to start with. This is a call for discussion.
Where do we want to be with Squeak, anybody with an investment it the way it currently works is welcome.
We are looking at re-engineering the basics, the VM teams are welcome to add their 2 (cents, pennies, etc).
I think we envisage a framework (for want of a better word) that is rather fundamental, upon which existing Morphic can live, along with opportunities for radical new ui frameworks.
Hands up, and we'll see who can form a team.
Gary.
