Hi All,
thank you Stef for this piece of information.
I will subscribe as individual member.
Let's say, you're doing a good job, I enjoy a lot using Pharo, that let's me
permit do/use funny and usefull things, teaching students, make some research software
prototypes, etc.
I have to say I would probably not succeed in convincing my university staff to subscribe
to the consortium. I personnaly vote for that, I will try and will do my best but I'am
not optimistic :-(
I understand that the fees are intended for enterprises or organizations that aim to make
business arround and/or with Pharo. I and my lab are not in such a perspective. Maybe I
would succeed in convincing IAE director for some hundred euros for supporting your
work...not for 1000 or more. Nevertheless, I will try.
Thanks
there is also the sponsoring possibility and the association can provide a bill for a
pharo "distribution"
So you can try to play with different budgets.
All the best,
Herve
