Hi all,
With Santi we wanted to share a new release of TaskIt, a concurrency
management library for Pharo. TaskIt development is done entirely in
github, using iceberg. Works like a charm. Please find below attached
the changes log with more information.
Cheers,
Guille & Santi

TaskIt is a library that ease Process usage in Pharo. It provides
abstractions to execute and synchronize concurrent tasks, and several
pre-built mechanisms that are useful for many application developers.
This chapter explores starts by familiarizing the reader with TaskIt's
abstractions, guided by examples and code snippets. At the end, we
discuss TaskIt extension points and possible customizations.
