Interesting, this English Pharo wiki page. I quote : 'Pharo is now organized as a benevolent dictatorship<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benevolent_Dictator_For_Life> of the community members who previously felt that they did not have enough influence. The members of the Pharo board are Marcus Denker<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Marcus_Denker&action=edit&redlink=1> , Stéphane Ducasse<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=St%C3%A9phane_Ducasse&action=edit&redlink=1>, and Sven Van Caekenberghe.'.
I'm going to edit it a little to introduce Pharo in the page instead of having a bunch of critics against some people of the community.
