Getting Updated Pharo By Example out the door

Hi guys

I will read from start to end the book and we will get it on lulu. I
plan to read up to 3 chapters per week.
If you want to help for real this is the time.

https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/view/Books/job/UpdatedPharoByExample/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/book-result/UpdatedPharoByExample.pdf

I rewrote the chapter on metaclass and a couple of other points because
TranslucentColor is not available anymore.
I will not rewrite what I do not like (I should now have written in the
first place :). So I'm not looking
for the perfect solution but to get something done.

- First
we will host http://www.pharoByExample.org at http://books.pharo.org

- Second
we will create a new entry for Updated pharo by example and (a new
entry for numerical method book too).

- Third
Read and fix Updated
Need a new cover (will ask lusy)
-> done

Re: Getting Updated Pharo By Example out the door

I am here to help you Stef , I am actually doing what you are doing going one chapter at a time, but for me its not 3 chapter per week but rather 1 chapter per week but I can boost my speed to 3 chapters per week and just dont pay so much attention to detail as I currently do. My goal so far was to focus on Pharo 4 and not Pharo 5, so I can make a Pharo 4 release (github release and github tag) and then move to pharo 5 at least one month before pharo 5 is released.

But because I know that your MOOC is based on Pharo 5 maybe you want to move UPBE directly to pharo 5 (not hard to do because we have already documented some parts of pharo 5) which works for me too.
