We use pillar syntax which is quite simple, drop off to irc chat #Pharo at freenode to discuss the detail though most things are already well documented about the process of contributing to the book. I have ported so far 4 chapter and I am in chapter 5 , Damien has port one chapter and Stephan partly ported another so we around 50% of the book.

The chapter will target people not familiar with Object Orientation and people new to coding. Its not an immediate target but it will happen till the end of the year.

However, that's not true. It is only sent to classes that redefine #initialize. Also sending super initialize may lead to problems. Ohhh yes. There is always a time for every Smalltalkers where you discover that doing super for class side initialize is not a good idea. Here was my time: http://forum.world.st/super-initialize-is-not-a-good-idea-for-Behaviors-td3086162.html None of these is mentioned in documentation (I assume Pahro By Example is the official one). It only says that #initialize is sent when class is loaded into memory. I think either this behavior should be made more consistent, or excplicitly mentioned in the docs. +1 to the documentation -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Unintuitive-behavior-of-class-side-initialize-tp4775042.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com
