Smalltalk with James Robertson

Andres Valloud has announced Smalltalks 2012, set for early November, 2012:

This would be a good time to get a calendar and try blocking November 7th through November 9th.  You see, we're inviting you to Puerto Madryn in beautiful southern Argentina so you can attend Smalltalks 2012! In the coming weeks we will send out research track calls for papers, calls for participation, and start the registration process. But get those presentations ready, Smalltalks 2012 will be here before you know it.  We look forward to seeing you there!

ESUG 2012 is happening in Gent, Belgium this year (August 27-31, with Camp Smalltalk on the 25th and 26th). Get all the details at the conference page.

More good cloud stuff from Gemstone:

In our previous post we used Chef to install GemStone/S 64 Bit into Cloud Foundry. Now we add code so that GemStone is recognized as a service offered by Cloud Foundry.
