Hi all,
all started at a discussion between Marcus and me on the way back
from the Squea Deutschland e.V. meeting in Magdeburg (Germany). The
result was to invent a group for all people, who are interested in
Software Engineering and related tools. This group has now got shape
in form of this new mailing list, which could be subscribed here:
http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/setoolsAll peoples are invited who have interest at issues like:
- software visualization tools
- requirement engineering tools
- bug management tools
- coding tools
- testing tools
in order to improve the Squeak development process, and also to have
professional tools for working with other languages ;-)
There are some concrete projects:
- building a new requirement and bug tracker for squeak, which is
meta modelled, has visualizations and implements workflows (to this
point there will be some news in the next days).
- port of Mondrian software visualization framework to squeak
- building requirement visualization in Squeak and Croquet.
If it would be allowed to me to express a wish as "initiator" of that
list:
it would be a great concern to me, that requirement engineering will
not be forgotten, and that we not exclude Croquet or Tweak by
principle, because I'm very interested in collaborative requirement
engineering. Of course this means not Croquet necessarily, but also
accessibility over the Web (->Seaside interfaces). But of course
*all* people are equal and all software engineering related projects
and ideas are welcomed :-)
Personally, I'm started for requirement visualization and will start
at once with Mondrian port. For my work and to collect ideas of all,
I've done some wiki pages on my Smallwiki

Softwaredesign (under construction yet)
Thanks for Marcus Denker and Stephane Ducasse and the SqF for support
and help.
Regards
Hans
