Udo;

I would like a Pharo version of Magma as well, and would be willing to contribute code changes to it.  Perhaps if we can get a few people working on it, it can be done with a reasonable amount of effort.

All,

I'm currently evaluating the effort needed to port Magma to Pharo. I already am as far as being to able to load all required packages using a configuration (w/o code changes so far ...).

Now I'm wondering which Magma/package versions I should best start porting upon? Any hints?

I'm also not sure how to deal with breaking changes. Just the fact that Pharo now uses a different file access approach means I have to change core methods (e.g. in Ma-Core in this case). So I can't "just" provide a "Ma*-Something-Pharo" package. And I'm pretty sure that there are other areas where Squeak and Pharo diverged over time ...

CU,

Udo
