[ANN] New FunSqueak 6
by Edgar J. De Cleene 30 May '08

30 May '08

I put a new FunSqueak3.10alpha.7.image. To list of previous packages, I add: Scamper. Celeste. InstanceEncoder OSC To web team , please update the info and links. http://ftp.squeak.org/various_images/FunSqueak/FunSqueak3.10alpha.7.zip To Stephanne Rollandin, I put all prerequisites Musical Objects need, still polishing details for having a small part of you super work into the image, hope I could do for the next . RePlugin is specific for each OS, so each need download and put into the right location. Maybe could be replaced by Vassily Regex , slower but only Smalltalk ? You tell me. I put the relevant updates of 3.10.1 into and set the depth to 32. Add the WelcomeWindow of 3.10 and the history of 3.10, remove Rosario photo and SSI photo of New Worlds of Squeak project to request of Serge. Enjoy and send feedback Edgar

Our website in other languages too?
by Janko Mivšek 26 May '08

26 May '08

Dear all, I just read Yoshiki's post about wish of Latin American countries to have EToys in Spanish and there are already wishes to have our www.squeak.org in Spanish too. So, shall we start thinking about having our website in many languages? I'm personally fan of that idea but with some preconditions: 1. Every supported language must have a sub-community willing to translate and maintain content in their language. Maintaining consistently and long-term! If this precondition is not met, we better don't support that language. 2. We need to upgrade website to be able to support many languages and easily make translation of content between them. We can copy the Wikipedia way of supporting multilingual entries where every language has its own but usually not the same description of some term. This way is to be considered too. We can have only the same basic structure and titles of the content, but every language sub-community has a freedom to describe the title by their own. Ok, some content must obviously be the same in all languages, but this can be the exception of the rule. We can also provide the notification of changes of content (RSS, e-mail), so that communities will be able to react to the changes fast. Best regards Janko Mivšek Web Team leader

What I was referring to (and I should have placed it in the original email) was this URL: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo >From the Community>HowTo page (http://squeak.org/Community/HowTo/) It lists all the squeak mailing lists except for Squeak-Audio. We also have this list that is pointed from the community page (http://squeak.org/Community/): http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/608 This is a topic for the webteam, so I'll copy them and we should move it to that list.

Reply to the list, not to the sender
by Janko Mivšek 21 May '08

Dear all, I changed our mailing list setting so that replies goes by default always back to the list and not to the sender, to have the same behavior as on the squeak-dev list. Just FYI, admins of the mailing list are Jason Rogers, Brad Fuller and me. Best regards Janko

Moving Board page from Foundation to Community?
by Janko Mivšek 21 May '08

21 May '08

Hi, I noticed that finding a Board page is not very easy because you must be aware that it is part of Squeak Foundation and I doubt a lot of Squeakers know that. But the board is very important body of community, so it is more natural to be on Community page. Something like that: Community How To Organization *Board* Teams Squeakers DVS On foundation page there will stay the link to the Board of course. What do you think? Janko

by Janko Mivšek 20 May '08

20 May '08

Hi again, This http://www.squeak.org/PressRoom/ seems to be duplicated by the News team Weekly Squeak blog, don't you think so? I propose therefore to remove this page or maybe redirect directly to the http://news.squeak.org/ Do you agree? Best regards Janko

Web Team Report - April 2008
by Janko Mivšek 16 May '08

16 May '08

Dear Squeakers, This is a monthly report about Web Team activities for April 2008. Web Team main responsibility is to maintain our main public face: the http://www.squeak.org website. Main news last month is that Karl Ramberg stepped down as a team leader and handled his duties to me. First I'd like to thank him for his past work and also many thanks to the community to invite and confirm me on this role. I will try my best to advance the Squeak public face further as much as possible. We started with a project to upgrade website to the more up-to-date technology and currently there are already two proposals on-line: Aida/Web/Scribo based: http://squeaksite.aidaweb.si/ Seaside/Pier based: http://squeak.lukas-renggli.ch/ I hope that we will manage to choose the technology and then upgrade the website next month. After that there are many other plans too, but first and foremost is to improve the Contact us section (http://www.squeak.org/ContactUs/). It is very important that outside world has a simple yet effective way to come in contact with us which is currently seriously limited because of all spam we receive on the published email address. We therefore urgently need to provide a web form with adequate anti-spam protection. This form will also be used for the contact to the other teams and the Board. Deadline for this form is end June. We are also working on refreshing the content, currently the Teams page http://www.squeak.org/Community/Teams/ while other pages will be refreshed continuously, but a complete recheck will be done when the content will be migrated to the upgraded website. Best regards Janko Mivšek Web team leader
