download page file stamps
by Timothy Falconer 31 Aug '09

31 Aug '09

Hi everyone, When uploading installers, be careful with file timestamps, since the page uses those for file dates. You can use "touch -t 200901311200" ([[CC]YY]MMDDhhmm[.SS]) to put a date back to its earlier date. I had manually fixed all the timestamps from the beta wiki page, but it looks like someone uploaded everything again and now all the dates are this month (including the january one). Also, I noticed that someone marked a 4.0 linux as "final" ... have we officially released a final for 4.0 linux? Tim

Hi everyone, We're opening up our weekly Etoys software chats to anyone that wants to attend, using the #etoys channel on irc.freenode.org. You can also attend using a web-browser by clicking "chat" on squeakland.org . First we need to find the best time for everyone. I've created a doodle that has slots for 12 noon New York time to 5pm New York time. This accommodates the people in California and the people in New York & Cambridge & Toronto. Please add your available times if you'd like to attend weekly. Meeting times will be an hour or less. Thanks, Tim

I think that any potential increase in the graphics capabilities of the most basic Squeak objects should have a multiplier effect on the abilities of all Squeak, so it's always very interesting. Regards

Issue with etoys 2257
by Karl Ramberg 29 Aug '09

29 Aug '09

Hi, It's still too easy to get stuck when you click into tutorial projects, the back arrow does not get you back... It's too easy to make spurious new projects, just by clicking the new project button. I'm not sure how we should deal with this though. Nested projects can be really confusing. KARL

And, there is a new beta installer for Windows: http://squeakland.org/content/installers/Etoys-4.0.2257-Beta-Win.exe It contains the new VM, which most notably allows the user to see the Quick Guide contents even after loading a project from a server and security sand boxing is enabled. Also, the image updated with some bug fixes. Also on the download page: http://squeakland.org/download/ you can find other beta versions. Please give them a try and let us know if you find some problems. -- Yoshiki
