[ANN] DolphinHarbor

Steve Waring-2
We are pleased to announce DolphinHarbor, a meeting place for the Dolphin
Smalltalk development community.

We hope that DolphinHarbor will evolve into a community of people from all
over the world who are interested in building and working with new tools and
enhancements for the Dolphin Smalltalk programming language.

We believe that, like ourselves, many Dolphin programmers in the world find
themselves with few, if any, associates whom they can 'talk shop' with about
Dolphin. This is unfortunate, since there are many talented Dolphin
programmers out there- they just seem to be geographically disbursed and
most seem to work individually or with small, isolated teams. In order to
address this, we are trying to create an environment which helps Dolphin
programmers collaborate, regardless of their physical location. We're
interested in writing code, discussing all aspects of programming, and
especially sharing ideas and brainstorming.

The DolphinHarbor community is already at work: Thus far, we have focused on
deploying Dolphin code as Web based servers, and exploring issues of
distributed objects. As demonstration of these efforts thus far, we offer
the dolphinharbor website itself.

DolphinHarbor is itself run by Dolphin- it is served by a Dolphin 4 image
running Dolphin Swazoo, which is a port of the Camp Smalltalk Smalltalk Web
Application Server.  An extensive array of custom Swazoo resources provide
creation of dynamic content.

Our most exciting project is Dolphin Spray- a complete Dolphin-native SOAP
implementation.  Although still in development, Spray has proven to be very
stable, flexible, easy to use, and scores very well on SOAP interoperability
tests.

We welcome anyone who would like to participate in the community- whether
you are interested in testing and improving an existing project, starting a
new project, deploying an application as a WebService, or even if you just
want to find people who you can bounce ideas off of!

You can find us at http://www.dolphinharbor.org.

Andy, Blair,

This is the impressive spin-off of Jerry's original idea to build you
a bug tracking system.

Would it be possible to have a link to DolphinHarbor from the Object
Arts website?

Thanks,

Ted
