WhatsUp from: 2015-09-07 until: 2015-09-20

Hi! We're sending this automatic email twice a month, to give the community an opportunity to easily know what's happening and to coordinate efforts.  Just answer informally, and feel free to spawn discussions thereafter!

### Here's what I've been up to since the last WhatsUp:

- $HEROIC_ACHIEVEMENTS_OR_DISMAL_FAILURES_OR_SIMPLE_BORING_NECESSARY_TASKS

### What's next, until 2015-09-20 (*):

- $NEXT_STEPS_TOWARDS_WORLD_DOMINATION

(*) we'll be expecting results by then ;)

     - Finished a first version of the Pharo Starter Kit (to be released
and announced soon).

     - Collection of YouTube pharo related videos (to be announced soon
too).

     - Many many little microscopical uninteresting cleans, with the
hope and probably conviction that at the end it will make a HUGE
difference :)
