Magic Words on XO
by Serge Stinckwich 18 Jun '10

18 Jun '10

Hi all, with a group of young students, we are willing to package the Magic Word application for the XO. Magic Word is a very nice open-source application written in Squeak/Smalltalk, where kids are able to create animated world very easily. Look at the web site for more information: http://comikit.se/page_magicwords.html What we want to do at the moment (organize by level of complexity): - adapt the application to XO constraints (especially screen) and release Magic Words as an xo application, - add a support for UTF-8 and translate the application in Vietnamese, - add a cooperative mode for Magic Words so the kids could tags the animated characters cooperatively in an adhoc network. The source code repository is available here: http://www.squeaksource.com/MagicWords.html We already do a meeting last week and another one is planned today.

OLPC/SUGAR open-source Manual
by Serge Stinckwich 17 Jun '10

17 Jun '10

Hi all, there is several open-source manuals regarding XO&SUGAR that we could translate in vietnamese: - http://en.flossmanuals.net/read - Squeak by Example : http://www.squeakbyexample.org/ Quynh told me that he would like to translate the TurtleArt activity book: http://en.flossmanuals.net/turtleart We can also try to organize book sprints in order to have more documentation available in a very short term: http://en.flossmanuals.net/booksprints We also have to update the OLPC Vietnam wiki page here: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Vietnam with a list of goals.

1st OLPC Vietnam developers meeting
by Serge Stinckwich 09 Jun '10

09 Jun '10

Hi all, we were around 15 people for the 1st meeting of OLPC Vietnam developers. I put some pictures of the event here: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=221797&id=538054947&l=7d2be59155 I made a short presentation of the OLPC project and a report of my visit to the Vung Vieng village. My slides (report of the VV village visit) are available here: http://www.slideshare.net/SergeStinckwich/visit-to-vung-vieng-village-olpc-… The conclusions of my visit are as following: - every XOs are working and are used everyday by kids. They really enjoyed it. - XOs are not part of a curriculum. This is more a leisure actitivity at the moment. - there is a problem with the local teachers: they only stay one year in the village. We need to train them every year. Teachers need to be more involved in the use of XOs in the classroom. - Only a limited set of activities seems to be used by the children. There is not enough vietnamese activities - XOs need to be update to newer versions of Sugar (0.82.1 => 0.88). We need to select specific activities (with good vn translation) and write some pedagogical documentation. We also made some demos of the Sugar environment (on Linux & XOs). Some students present at the meeting are particularly interested in developing Sugar applications. One of the conclusion of this meeting is that we need to grow the user&developer Sugar community in order to have more vietnamese contents. This will be one our top priorities of the next months.

Fwd: [JOB] We are Looking for a Pharo Engineer

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Marcus Denker <marcus.denker(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Jun 8, 2010 at 9:09 PM Subject: [JOB] We are Looking for a Pharo Engineer To: Smalltalk-fr <smalltalk-fr(a)googlegroups.com> From: Marcus Denker <marcus.denker(a)inria.fr> Date: June 7, 2010 3:48:39 PM GMT+02:00 To: "Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr Development" <Pharo- project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr> Subject: [JOB] We are Looking for a Pharo Engineer Hello, INRIA RMOD is looking for a full-time engineer for helping with Pharo development. As researchers, we need a really great system to explore new ideas with. The job of the engineer is to help us by improving the infrastructure we use for our work. What this of course means is that it's kind of a cool job: work in a research lab, but no paper writing, no teaching, no administration. In addition: - live in France (one hour from Paris, 1h20 from London, 35 min from Brussels) - try a lot of good beers (our office is just 10km from the border to Belgium) - french food - code all the day in Smalltalk and a bit of C Apparently from what the DHR services told us, the salary will depend on years of expertise and diplomas. We can think that 2700 Euros (before final taxes) should be a good working number for a candidate of the experience we are looking for. In France the employer pays already social security and pension. So the salary already includes lots (and lots) of deductions compared to e.g. a german brutto salary. Lille is an active city but not expensive (lot of students...), centrally located with good connections by train to everywhere (including CDG and Brussels airports). The job will to continue making Pharo better - better tools - better network support - better compiler infrastructure - improve the VM - help with day-to-day bug fixing and constant improvement Therefore we are looking for a candidate with some years of Smalltalk (possible Pharo/Squeak) background. Duration: 30 months Starting date: October 2010 Location: Lille (no remote job possible) Fpr Official Job Description and Application see: http://rmod.lille.inria.fr/web/pier/blog/2010-06-07 Deadline: 15 July 2010 More about INRIA Lille: http://www.inria.fr/lille/ INRIA in General: http://www.inria.fr Engineers at INRIA: http://www.inria.fr/travailler/metiers/accompagnement/dev_applications.en.h… Lille: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lille http://www.mairie-lille.fr/en http://wikitravel.org/en/Lille Do not hesitate to contact us for more information.

I want to attend OLPC Vietnam Developers Meeting
by Hai Minh Nguyen 02 Jun '10

02 Jun '10

My friend Yang Nguyen told me about this meeting. My knowledge about XO machine, Squeak/EToys is limited and I'm interested in them. So I will be very glad if I can come to this meeting. Thank you. -- Kiếm ma độc cô cầu bại - Ôi, một đời oanh liệt, chỉ mong được chiến bại một lần, nhưng chưa ai qua nổi quá tam chiêu!!!
