- The next Squeak
Community Meeting is on 13 October. Find a web cam and join us in
a fun Google Hangout! [1]
- We are happy to see the
work on Squeak 4.4 being in the home stretch now, looking forward
to the release
- Ideas are collecting for
Squeak 4.5, such as including a full Environments implementation
and removing deprecated code.
- Traits were discussed.
We would like to know about Squeak projects that use Traits for
development, or about other packages that use Traits.
- Squeak took possession
of a new Virtual Server from Gandi.net [2] provided courtesy
of our legal home, the Software Freedom Conservancy [3]. The
existing Jenkins server [4] will be moved
over to the new location and expanded to manage more jobs. Those
jobs will not just be for running tests on the trunk image, but
for virtual machine compilation. It is to be hoped that having a
working start-to-finish build script that anybody can run will
help to document the process and make it more accessible to all
Squeakers.
- The Softlayer server is
still waiting on approval from its legal department and is
expected to arrive in the near future
- We briefly touched the
subject of marketing/promoting Squeak to the wider world. One idea
is to create greater visibility for the projects members of the
community are working on, which is one of the objectives of the
Squeak Community Meetings on G+. Since we ran out of time we will
return to this topic at our next meeting.
