This is a small report of our first meeting at IFI. In fact, we were only 2 guys, so i have been a little bit disappointed, but this is already a good start ;-)
Thank you Canh for coming :-)
We start to talk about the different files needed for Pharo : a VM engine (stack based or Cog), an image file (a snapshot of all the objects of your system), a changes file (containing all the changes done by the user) and the sources files. There is also an alternative of the one-click images more suitable for beginners that allows you to use the same file on all the platforms.
After that, i explained a little bit how Monticello works. Monticello is very similar to svn/git but dedicated to Smalltalk. Recently this is possible to combine git and Monticello with Pharo in order to the best of both worlds :-)
And we see that this is almost impossible to loose some Smalltalk code, thanks to the .changes image. We talked also on collections and how to do iterations in various ways.
I hope that we will have more people next time. Regards,

Dear all,
we are considering starting some regular meetings for developers interested by Smalltalk. Smalltalk is an object-oriented, dynamically typed, reflective programming language. Our platform of choice is Pharo: http://www.pharo-project.org/
The first meeting will be April 3rd from 6pm to 8pm at IFI (ngõ 42 Tạ Quang Bửu, quận Hai Bà Trưng, Hà Nội.). If you are interested to join us, send me a message. You can also join our mailing-list here: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/smalltalk-vn
The discussions of the first meeting will be around:
- Exploring different variations of current Smalltalk implementations
based on Pharo.
- Discussing about the workflow when working with Smalltalk.
Regards,
Serge Stinckwich UMI UMMISCO 209 (IRD/UPMC), Hanoi, Vietnam Every DSL ends up being Smalltalk http://doesnotunderstand.org/
