[ANN] Pharo Association: Join or Renew now!

Hi,

The new Pharo Association website is up and running for some month.

If you are a member, it will bug you once a year to renew.

If you were a member in the past and have not been bugged by the system to renew until now,

please subscribe now as a new member.

(We added all active members, but as the old system was purely manual, people did not get

asked to renew very consistently and you might not be in the system anymore)

See the website for more information:

https://association.pharo.org

The old site allowed you to put a web site on your profile page. That would be nice to have back.

Hi,

Yes, we are planning to extend the profiles to have space for

-> website

-> short bio

-> list of interests

-> interested in listed as public pharo consultant?

*and* we will then automatically generate http://consultants.pharo.org from that data, too.

Hello Marcus

I decided to join the Association. Just one oddity in the sign up process. There is a mandatory question about public listing, with just one box to tick, saying I want to be listed. The system won’t let you proceed unless you answer this question, and the only permitted answer is Yes. If it is intended that listing is optional, you should also have a No box, or change it so that answering is not mandatory. Personally I’m not worried about being publicly listed, but others might be.

Best wishes

Peter Kenny

I have changed it to be not optional. I think this should provide what we want: people can select it or let it empty.

I have added more fields. Members can edit them as part of the membership tab.

by default the information is visible to other members, but can be made public (in the profile settings).

This is my member details page after changing the fields to be public:

Maybe there should be information that the membership (and fee) is automatic due to contributing to the pharo salt or bounty program (or whatever it is called). I also assume that that will automatically update the membership when the due time comes.

Yes, there is a hidden field with that info.

At the start of the year I prolongated everyone after checking that the info is still valid.

Salt is not well done, though. Eg. there is *no* way to get notified about new sponsors, and they do not anwer
*any* support requests. e.g. changing the description of a level is impossible, basic things like that.

(even though we pay 10% of all income for it…)
