This week Michael and I spoke about the work going into WebVelocity 1.1 - both the work that's improving the editor, and the work in support of cloud based deployment. Michael also mentioned that more screencasts on this stuff should be coming soon, so stay tuned to his blog for that.

Julian Fitzell notes that necessity is the mother of invention:
In our work on other projects, we found the same portability challenges came up over and over and we wanted to use the tools we had developed for Seaside to address them. So we began to split out the Seaside-specific functionality, allowing us to leverage the generic parts it in our other work. And thus Grease was born.
Over the years there have been many, many attempts at portability layers for the various Smalltalk implementations; none has ever stuck. I have a bit more faith in this one, because it's being driven by the needs of an actual project, instead of by the more typical hypothetical needs of some abstract project.
Georg Heeg eK is proud to announce the release of a new version of seaBreeze. Version 4.4 is available both via Cincom Public Store and as QuickStart Image.
It's based on VW 7.7 and Seaside 3.0; follow the link for more details, including how to get it.
Some of you are probably wondering where the video from the recent events we held is - I did film everything in Seattle, Toronto, and Baltimore. Well, here's the deal: since we've been giving the same talks in each location, I'll eventualy post one of each (the best of the bunch). Additionally, I intend to hold them until after our London and Paris events (March 2nd and 4th, respectively). You can register for those events here (free) - I'll post the locations closer to the events themselves.
Here's our audio wrapup from today's Baltimore event - we streamed it live earlier today.

With the recent (December 2009) releases of ObjectStudio 8.2 and VisualWorks 7.7, we gave a product update talk to the Toronto Smalltalk User's Group on January 26th, 2010. You can download the NC releases here. Here's a PDF Copy of the presentation. To watch, click on the viewer below:
I'll have more photos later - my network connection here is shaky. We've gotten off to a good start, and we'll have an audio wrap up later today (1:30 PM EST).
