Is the Squeak foundation dead? How are you?! Ciao ciao!
Hi Giovanni--
Is the Squeak foundation dead?
No, it's bursting with people asking if it's still alive. :)
How are you?
Excellent! And yourself?
The way in which I'm currently contributing to the Squeak Foundation is by making the system smaller and cleaner. I spend most of my Squeak time doing this and not talking much about it. This is good because the overhead to getting things done is low, and not so good because my priorities might not be quite right (and I don't help the Squeak-Foundation-looks-dead problem). I think things will change when I get to a place where I can split up the work I'm doing.

Ok, it was a stupid email ;) but I'd like to know the status of the Squeak comunity.

Quite good, thank you

I think the lack of a "scoped module interface" is a big problem. We cannot develop good package into Squeak without a NameSpace facility! What about this thing? Bye
