the impact of moldability

Tudor Girba-2
Hi,

There were a couple of emails in the recent period that questioned the usefulness of moldability (the ability of developers to customize their tools deeply and inexpensively). More specifically, the question was about the moldability of the GTDebugger.

I put together a couple of thoughts of why we think that moldability is actually a competitive advantage:

Please read it and provide feedback.

Cheers,
Doru

From the point of view of user programming within Dr. Geo, moldability
on the PlayGround, the inspector, the debugger and ideally nautillus
(but it is not cover right?) offer great perspective to get these tools
adjusted to the user background culture (mostly math teacher and hacker
with low knowledge on Smalltalk/Pharo)
But Dr. Geo is not there yet.
