I'll need to interact with objects, like hotspots or image maps, not to a buttons group. :-) AL milan.zimmermann wrote: > > Hi Al, > > I am not sure I understand exactly what you are looking for (maybe you are > looking for "programatic" solution).

Please review proposed enhancement to enable preloading. http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/5861 But I am not sure if it is really ideal. Progress of translations for OLPC EToys is behind codes and translation effort will be long tail. (We haven't yet had Pootle based ecosytem for translation though we expect it soon) And we can't use update stream any more to maintain gettext based translation dictionary in image. What's wrong with external MOs even for preconfigured settings? /Korakurider

News Report Dec 2007
by Ron Teitelbaum 03 Jan '08

03 Jan '08

Happy New Year everyone, Here is your news report for Dec 2007 and the year. We had a big hit with Craig's pictures http://news.squeak.org/2007/12/29/old-smalltalk-pics-from-parc-place/. There was an amazing amount of interest: 29,614 hits! Thank you! Craig helped us to beat our record and gave us our best day ever of 17,959 hits on Dec 30 (this was more then all the hits we received last month). This was a very nice way to end the year. Our second place post was http://news.squeak.org/2007/12/05/demand-olpc/ with: 1279 hits. We had only 5 posts for the month. Our search hits continue to be very strong on search keys that include 'OLPC'. For the entire year of 2007 we had 179,745 hits. This was our first full year (total of 16 months). My impressions of the Weekly Squeak are that we are doing quite well. I've noticed that there is a lot of talk about Smalltalk and Squeak and we are receiving a number of links from other communities, blogs and web sites. I'm sure most of the buzz has been generated by OLPC, Croquet and Seaside but I would like to believe that we helped a little to raise the awareness of other developers about the Squeak community and our continued support and progress. We have a terrific community and I'm looking forward to the new year of Squeak and Smalltalk. We are proud to be a part of and support this community. Thank you for supporting and reading the Weekly Squeak! Ron Teitelbaum and The Squeak News Team

Hi. I know this is experimental but,, Which translation engine will we use, gettext emulation or (historical) NaturalLanguageTranslator? How about QuickGuide?
