Smalltalk with James Robertson

Spotted in PharoCasts

Storyboard is a multi-user agile planning board with drag and drop support. It shows how little code is needed to build a complete application with Deltawerken. It consists of 39 classes, of which 7 are announcements (very simple). It allows you to quickly enter stories, estimate and prioritize them. In addition to stories you can add issue, documentation and chore cards. The cards are colored based on their story state. More details can be entered/viewed by expanding the card. In the expanded view a change history is shown. Other users of Storyboard can be invited to participate.

The Open Source Developer Conference in France is calling for participation:

The goal of OSDC.fr is to gather developers from various communities around groundbreaking technologies in the world of computer programming. After two editions on our own, we are now working together with the Open World Forum since 2011 to bring you an improved experience.

For the 4th edition of this conference in France, we want to unite the communities around open source development in all the free and open source languages, like Perl, Python, Ruby, PHP, Smalltalk and many more.

The event will be in Paris on October 12-13.

James Foster has updated his "how to":

Some time ago I described the steps I used to add Perl as a simple runtime and framework to Cloud Foundry. Since then many changes have taken place in Cloud Foundry and those steps no longer work. I now have something that works as of 30 August 2012. To see the changes go to my github repository and view the changes to  vcap, vcap-staging, stager, and cloud_controller. Note that the recent refactoring of Cloud Foundry means that instead of isolating changes to one repository, we now make changes to four repositories.

Yet another reason I wish I was at ESUG this year - the people in that part of the Smalltalk community are great. They just sent me this (click through for the full size version):

Craig Latta:

Huge thanks to yesplan.be for hosting Camp Smalltalk at ESUG 2012 in Gent, Belgium! I walked in and connected my computer to a humongous display and wireless keyboard/mouse, and connected myself to a humongous pile of speculoos, koffie, and Belgian chocolate. :)  All while a charming street festival went on outside. This is the perfect recipe for classic code!
