Ok then I think the best way to do this is to start this in my own
github account then give you guys the link , review the documentation
and if you find satisfying add it to SquareBracketAssociates via
forking it, if not I can still continue it with my github account. Of
course I will use pillar and follow the same workflow as PBE. I don't
want to do this via blog posts , I prefer pillar and github.
We can create a repo on
PBE wise looks like from what I see from a first look that 12 out 16
chapters are ported. So PBE is near completion at least at a draft
level. I can give a hand with a couple more chapters thats not a big
deal.
Thanks. We will have to read it again. I have to check (I got stuck in
the model chapter and the first one).
There is no Pharo book for Morphic and for me this is a big omission.
Frankly I would take even a small docs about Morphic and Pharo 3/4
over no documentation at all, any day.
Sure
Just read what I said.
Go incremental.
I am not saying that you should contribute to a Morphic book I mean
this is your choice but its something I want to work on. If people
want to contribute all they have to do is fork my repo and send me
pull requests or even add them as contributors. If they dont want, no
problemo I continue alone.
In any case when I have something substantial (something more than 30
pages) I will alert the list.

Hello people, I am really interested since PBE seems to go
very well to now concentrate on a project I had in mind for
some time and it is to start a book on Pharo Morphic.
I would start small and for example as a series of blog posts.
Then we you reach a certain amount I would then turn them into a book.
For Spec we plan to collect all the material and have a small booklet.
My plan is to add it to github group SquareBracketAssociates
which I am member of for contributing to the new PBE.
Is that ok with you ?
it is ok but now the strategy I adopted is the following one:
- avoid to have many unfinished books (or many not making
progress or slow progress)
- this is why I have work in progress to work on the chapters,
ready for reviews then the chapters will populate the books
- this way I do not give the impression that Pharo is starting
stuff and not finishing
- I would suggest the same: host some chapter in the work in
progress and when you enough push that to a book.
I finished an editorial pass on deep into pharo and will continue
to work on Pharo by example, then resume my work on
the other books (slow is n't it :)).
I will try to port all documentation available already for
Morphic from self and squeak to Pharo 4 and of course add my
own pages as well.
There is not much available, or exciting but you can start there.
I also have forgot my travis password, I have asked here
before but none replied, so if anyone can help me recover my
password or create a new one or create a job for the project ,
I will appreciate it.
travis I do not know.
Obviously I want to make this project according to the
guidelines of the community. So if you have suggestions fire
away :)
I would like this to be the official book on Morphic , I want
it to be both a tutorial but also a reference book with more
emphasis on the reference side. Probably will divide in into a
Part 1 and a Part 2 where Part 1 is the tutorial and Part 2 is
the reference.
I dont expect to of course to do a ton of work and finish this
book any time soon, but then something is better than nothing.
