The STIC website - the one that's supposed to promote the power of Smalltalk to business? It's running on WordPress. At least the Squeak and Pharo communities understand the whole dogfooding thing :)

James,

in case of the STIC site it doesn't really matter. STIC is so invisible that running it on Smalltalk would not make much of a difference...

You have a point, but it's still kind of odd. The server was running Smalltalk :)

And the mudslinging helps matters how?

This is mudslinging? Wow, all I did was mention the concept of dogfooding. I'd hardly call that mudslinging. More like noticing something.

The Cincom Smalltalk web site [1] is running WordPress as well (IIRC it was running VW at some point as well).

Yeah, they did that changeover last year. It had been running on VisualWorks.
