Dear Stef,

>>> http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Q2LKKDT

To honor the proposal of a "votation", imho, the list should include
 a "blank" option, to let us express disconformity with all books
 about smalltalk published in the last 5 years;
 also it wolud be nice to see the option of "another not listed" (with
 posibility to edit a reference).

cheers,
Ale.
