Re: [OT] smalltalk video

StrongTalk has just been Open Sourced by Sun.

There's lots of cool stuff going on, but doesn't get disseminated as 
widely, although Seaside is making waves (ouch!).


Cheers,

Luis.

There are lots of Smalltalks available, too. A new product called 
Strongtalk is emerging as the new fair-haired entry because of its speed 
but it's pretty new and untested.


Lots and lots of folks still doing Smalltalk, though the crowd seems to 
remain largely confined to educators and those exploring multimedia, 3D, 
etc. It's a surprisingly resilient crowd given the passage of more than 
three decades since its inception.
