Best Spreading Smalltalk Actions

Noury Bouraqadi-2
Although the technology is important, spreading the word is also of great value to the Smalltalk community.
This is why the ESUG board decided to distinguish two people for their actions on this-level:

-Damien Cassou
for Squeak-dev: an initiative which makes developers life easier by setting a ready to use image including best available tools.

-Laurent Laffont
for Pharocast: quality screencasts that illustrates various facets of

Congratulations Damien and Laurent!

ESUG actions (was: Best Spreading Smalltalk Actions)

Noury Bouraqadi-2
In reply to this post by Stéphane Ducasse
Hi,

ESUG is willing to support all actions everywhere.
The "E" of ESUG can also be interpreted as "Earth-wide" :-)

In places where there are Smalltalk groups we help them (sponsoring).
Otherwise we push their creation.

If you have a project that might help the Smalltalk community in someway (free software project, writing books, organizing an event, ...), you are eligible to ESUG support. Just submit your proposal to the ESUG board ([hidden email]) and you'll get quickly an answer.

You can find a list of ESUG actions on-line:

I think ESUG has been an outstanding success for Smalltalk globally and therefore deserves to be called The Smalltalk Users Group. TSUG. Such a name change will also give a better impression to Smalltalk and is not untrue.

All the best,

:)

This is fun because one of the board member raised the question just before this remark.
We are not sure that rebranding is good but so far I like your slogan.
And we welcome any smalltalker.

The goals of esug are simple (you can see that in the first talk of esug and also the one of serge about future actions)
        - create energy in the community (via the conf via new user groups)
        - support open-source development
        - support business in Smalltalk
        - push/help teacher teaching Smalltalk
        - bring open-source and business together (check my last talk at Barcelona - we need strong vendors and strong open-source)
ESUG never took into account geographic perspective, we sent books all over the world in the past.
And student volunteers came from everywhere :)
