moose = smalltalk ambassador

Hi,

Moose (http://moosetechnology.org) is a Smalltalk ambassador. Actually, I think it's the best ambassador we have right now to persuade professional developers to look into Smalltalk.

Let me tell you why.

Moose is a platform for software and data analysis and includes components like: Glamour, Mondrian or PetitParser. Moose solves a real and important problem that developers (both Smalltalkers and non-Smalltalkers) have: how to improve the productivity of the effort spent on assessment. Moose is an innovation in this domain because it enables a completely different approach through which developers craft their own tools fast (http://humane-assessment.com). The cool thing is that they build these tools by programming Smalltalk in Pharo, and thus they get to learn the language and the platform first.

Moose also comes with exposure. For example, this year I will be presenting Moose and humane assessment at some large industry oriented conferences:
- Jazoon (http://jazoon.com)
- GotoCon Aarhus (http://gotocon.com/aarhus-2011/)
- GotoCon Amsterdam (http://gotocon.com/amsterdam-2011/)

All in all, if you want to promote Smalltalk, and Pharo in particular, you might want to look into it. And you are always welcome to contribute, follow us and make noise:

Re: [Esug-list] moose = smalltalk ambassador

Now, being serious, I do agree. In fact, in my few presentations I did to companies/lectures outside ESUG/Smalltalks I always have a slide for Moose.
The BEST thing for moose in the sense of persuading new guys to Smalltalk is what you said: there are and there can be non-smalltalk users using Moose. Which at the end must understand a little of how Moose/Smalltalk works. And that's cool.

In reply to this post by Tudor Girba

Dear Tudor,
this is great; this kind of making the outside world aware of
Smalltalk is just what we need.

Jazoon (http://jazoon.com) is before ESUG 2011 in Edinburgh. I hope you
will take the opportunity while there to advertise us. You can download
the conference poster (high-resolution jpeg or pdf) from
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7726739/ESUG_Promo.jpg
or
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7726739/ESUG_Promo.pdf
and the conference flyers from
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7726739/ESUG_Postcard.pdf
and the website is
http://www.esug.org/Conferences/2011

I look forward to seeing the latest state of moose in Edinburgh.

Wishing you luck with your conferences
Niall Ross
