Hi All,

So a quick question.  

Should I post links to articles here too?

http://news.squeak.org/2013/03/27/what-does-the-future-hold-for-pi/ 

Most people I assume already have enough ways to follow the blog but I
thought I would ask.

Thanks for your feedback.

We reckon there are orders of magnitude of performance increases we
can shake out of Scratch**, for example; and this isn't stuff you can
expect the community to do, because it's a very long and fiddly job.
So Scratch, Wayland, Smalltalk: you should see some big improvements
coming over this year.

BTW what about etoys on the Raspberry Pi?

**: Scratch is a Squeak variant being one of the major applications on
the Raspberry Pi.
So there are 1 million  machines more running Squeak. :-)
Tim Rowledge who is a Squeak board member is working on improving the
speed of Scratch.

Where are people's favoured places to read about stuff? I probably don't know about most of them and certainly don't have time to read many, so I know I miss things.

Wow. I gave up on /. about ten years ago I think. Nice to see some things don't change in this fast-movingworld of ours; even a brief visit reminded of how scarily dumb most commenters are.

If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you've never tried before.

Never ever read the comments on a website. It's a bad trip. Take the blue pill!

UbuntuKylin OS is a linux OS that is being given support for at least five years by the Chinese Government. Its goal is to be the national OS for China. It is an opportunity for Squeak to be a prominent programming and scirpting environment on this OS. How can we make SqueakKylin to be total beautiful on UbuntuKylin?
