[Newbies] SoC idea: Futuristic New Browser View

2008-03-08 Thread Klaus D. Witzel

Dear Squeakers,

is anybody out there who wants to do a futuristic new browser view during  
this year's SoC. It's not about the browser itself, this machinery is  
supposed to be (re-)used from existing browsers.


Also, not everything in the futuristic new browser view can be done in the  
first phase; especially the tuples for what is selectable/shown in the  
panes are supposed to be addressed in another project phase.


This can be your chance to create a new browser view which many developers  
would like to see and use :)


Drop me an email in case that is interesting to you.

/Klaus

[Newbies] Headless Squeak on Redhat - HELP!

2008-03-08 Thread albegadeep
Sqweet. Hmm. Would it be better to manually insert the
options I want to set into #setPlatformPreferences
(warnIfNoChangesFile false, warnIfNoSourcesFile false,
updateFromServerAtStartup false), thus editing a
system class, or somehow put these into my own class
and call them? If the latter, what would be the
typical Squeak way of going about it?

[Newbies] What's the best way to reply to a post here?

2008-03-08 Thread albegadeep
I can't find a 'reply' button, so I'm copy/pasting the
post title into my email program at the moment. Is
there an easier, more logical way of replying to a
specific post?

[Newbies] Save without processShutDownList/processStartUpList?

2008-03-08 Thread albegadeep
I'm working on a server-side program that should save
its state occasionally to prevent data loss. I really
don't want the open ports to be closed, all users
kicked, etc. just to save the program.

Is there a way to save the image without running the
processShutDownList command when not quitting?

OR

Is there a way to detect when an image is being
saved-without-quitting and thus know not to shut
everything down?

The #shutDown: class method receives a boolean parameter exactly for  
this purpose (as has #startUp:).

Hmm. Which Squeak version? I'm running 3.8.2a, and I
can't find that method. (Maybe which class?)

Any.

Type shutDown: anywhere, select it, press Cmd-m (or Alt-m on PCs).


(Maybe which class?)


Every class registered in the shutdown list (although some only  
implement #shutDown which ignores the boolean parameter).

[Newbies] [Election 2008] The results are in!

2008-03-08 Thread goran
Hi all Squeakers!

Ok, the Squeak Foundation Board Election 2008 ended 19 minutes ago -
promptly at 18.00 UTC, 8 March.

For this year we had 437 authorized voters of which 178 voted, that is
slightly more than 40% voting - a bit disappointing IMHO since we had
157 voting of 347 last year which gives above 45%. 
On the other hand 178 is more than 157, so we had more voters and thus a
growing community, which of course is the most important aspect!

And without further ado I bring you the board for the following year
starting from NOW. The order reflects the ranking from the election:

1. Dan Ingalls
2. Craig Latta
3. Bert Freudenberg
4. Yoshiki Ohshima
5. Tim Rowledge
6. Randal L. Schwartz
7. Igor Stasenko

And thus the candidates left out are the following (also in ranked
order):

8. Giovanni Corriga
9. Edgar J. De Cleene
10. Andrew P. Black
11. Matthew Fulmer
12. Tansel Ersavas

For excrutiating details see: 

http://www.cs.cornell.edu/w8/~andru/cgi-perl/civs/results.pl?id=E_d38cc
27709a65b64

This also means that we say THANK YOU to Andrew Black, Cees de Groot and
Stéphane Ducasse for having served on the board the previous year.
Thanks guys!

And we also say welcome Dan, Randal and Igor to the board!

And thank YOU for voting and all the best to the new board! Viva la
Squeak!

regards, Göran Krampe

PS. And to you guys that didn't get on the board - hey, we all know that
the REAL WORK is done in the teams, right? :)

Funny.  You know, there's legit disagreement about top-posting.  It's
not black and white.  For quick replies in which the context probably
doesn't need to be reviewed (just remembered because the original
happened a few nanoseconds ago) I prefer top-posting as both a poster
and reader.
