[Squeak-fr] Juste un point

[stephane ducasse]

Desole en anglais mais je pense que cela interesse les squeakers  
francais que je connais.


Hi guys

After all the mails in Squeak-dev and all these nice words or explicit  
suggestions about us been assholes, destructors...
whatever :) I would like to share with you my mindset to you.

We do not want a war, nor world domination. :)
We are doing pharo because Smalltalk deserves a good and beautiful  
opensource implementation.
Our goal is not to kill Squeak. Our goal is to provide a vehicule on  
top of which people can
invent their future been it
	- multimedia
	- seaside
	- kids
	- research
We need a place to expand beauty. We want that students can get  
enthusiast about Smalltalk and not
turned down by some ugly code. We want an agile system with lot of  
tests, comments, clean code, driven
bit a lot of good software engineering practices.
I really thank the people that trust us.

Stef

PS: I'm one the guy that wrote 3 squeak book, 1 seaside book (coming  
soon), translated etoys in french,
so I'm laughing when people suggest that we are predators.
