I am a great fan of Mercedes Sosa. I was lucky enough to see her live

Great! You're right...

other Argentinean Squeakers for a while, hope they are well).

I haven't had news from Luciano for quite some time. I see most other
Argentinian Squeakers you might know from time to time. From Nov 19 to
Nov 21 we're having Smalltalks 2009, the third Argenitinan conference
on Smalltalk. The first two were great and I'm sure this will be great
too. Most Squeakers in Argentina will be there, and several folks from
other parts of the world will come too. All Squeakers are invited to
attend, and to give talks too!

Thanks for your kind words, Tansel.
<br>
<br>
I want to tell about SqueakNews to anybody who isn't aware of it.
SqueakNews was a project lead by Tansel several years ago. It was the
first electronic magazine ever, and it was fully devoted to Squeak. A
lot of great content and wonderful interviews to members of the
SqueakCentral team. All the issues are freely available now.
<br>
<br>
It was thanks to a great interview with John Maloney, and his
description of the handling of coordinates in Morphic that my Morphic 3
project got started. Thanks for that, and for a great time enjoying
SqueakNews!
<br>
<br>
Cheers,
<br>

<br>
Yesterday the greatest argentinian singer, Mercedes Sosa passed away.
<br>
She is perhaps the most loved artist in our country. She was an
<br>
incredible person and among many other wonderful things she was the
<br>
greatest ambassador of latin american music in the world.
<br>
<br>
As a small tribute to her, I want to share some of her art with you.
