Hi, I think email is not particularly good for this. Let’s talk directly next week.

In the meantime, here is some input: It would be great to align the development of Moose with that of Pharo. We were waiting for this for a long time, and now that Pharo is built similar to how other projects are built, we can finally do it. So, this is really great!

And I also do not want to have 1 year releases. In fact, that is why for our work we actually use the latest version. The only reason why we did not have faster releases was that there was no reliable way to do it, except the manual way. Right now, we still do not have such a way for Git either, and this is not a problem unique to Moose. It would be great work on some solution for this problem to benefit all Pharo projects.

For Glamour and existing GT, we can deal with bugs at most, but we will not invest in further development. The memory leaks problem seems to have reappeared. This shows that we do not have the right tools for understanding it, and I would be happy to work with someone that wants to invest in this, especially when it comes to Announcements.

On the UI front, our complete energy is on Bloc, and the goal is both to produce the IDE for Pharo and to provide the browsing infrastructure for Moose. Over the past year, the main UI we used when working with Moose was the Moose Playground and GTInspector and it works really well. This shows that the investment in Bloc can pay off easily for Moose as well.

Also, beside the UI, the new GT also comes with visual components, like Mondrian and Diagrammer, and with the basic support for documentation with Documenter. I am not sure I understand what not loading GTExample mean.

Bloc/Brick/GT are tested and documented like this, so we need to have that around.

I guess that you are referring to the issue "GT-Examples-Roassal2 should not be packaged in GT-Examples #1180”. I think there is a confusion, so I added a comment for that: https://github.com/moosetechnology/Moose/issues/1180#issuecomment-373904295

Yes. So, let’s start with one next Tuesday.

Yes. >> In the meantime, here is some input: >> >> It would be great to align the development of Moose with that of Pharo.

So, this is really great! > > You will tell me what you mean because this is not clear. > I do not see for now the difference. I mean that until 6.1, Pharo was managed by integrating in the image. From 7.0, Pharo is managed by loading code, and the process is much more similar to what happens in Moose. This means that now we can reuse the learnings and infrastructure in both of these projects.

>> And I also do not want to have 1 year releases. In fact, that is why for our work we actually use the latest version. The only reason why we did not have faster releases was that there was no reliable way to do it, except the manual way. Right now, we still do not have such a way for Git either, and this is not a problem unique to Moose.

The problem is when you have multiple repositories, and a deeper nesting level. Indeed, we do not have version methods, but we still have to change the string inside the baseline to point to specific version of a dependency. >> For Glamour and existing GT, we can deal with bugs at most, but we will not invest in further development.

This is not the way to grow a strong infrastructure. > - Having all the classes subclasses of Announcer looks like a bad design strategy. We are now talking about things that happened 9 years ago :). In VW, every object is announcer. As Glamour came in Pharo from VW, it was the simpler move strategy. Indeed, GLMAnnouncer should not exist, but the logic of GLMAnnouncer is quite specific (suspending announcements) to Glamour and we did not find a nice way to make it properly reusable, and that is why it did not get into Announcer. We had a long discussion about this with Igor, and at the time he was guarding Announcements, so nothing was integrated. >> On the UI front, our complete energy is on Bloc, and the goal is both to produce the IDE for Pharo and to provide the browsing infrastructure for Moose. Over the past year, the main UI we used when working with Moose was the Moose Playground and GTInspector and it works really well.

We cannot for example spent days looking for memory leaks. I did not discard the argument. But that was the best solution I could find, and others did not produce a better one. Of course generic infrastructures have a cost. Now, before considering the cost of generic solutions, we should also compare it with the cost of maintaining 1000s of concrete use cases (such as inspector extensions). As you know, finding the right abstraction is difficult. For example, Traits underwent several implementations over 15 years, and now we have another one. You have a similar issue with Spec. For me, this is actually great. All of these served a purpose at the time, but the important part is that they were shipped even if they were not perfect. > Now you see something that is symptomatic to me: let us look at Beacon / SystemLogger. > I do not care about SystemLogger. Now I worked on it (and the design could be better). > Then you came with Beacon which basically killed SystemLogger. > Then nothing.

The same happens with Glamour. Probably the same happens with Spotter. > If esteban cannot fix easily Glamour (Iceberg suffered A LOT of bugs in Glamour like the refresh to index in list) then there is an ENGINEERING problem. > Now we can discard this argument. The point is still there. I do not understand this part. Beacon was moved under the Pharo umbrella, but its integration was postponed multiple times due to various other external reasons in Pharo that were not under my control. Now, Beacon also came with documentation, and its implementation is smaller and has less concepts than SystemLogger (the main engine has 303 lines of code). I would be very happy to push it, but I do not know what else to do right now :(. > So at the end I want to say that I may prefer that Pharo does not have hyperfancy features that only two people master > and that we (the guy spending time on cleaning) can manage our system.

I am not sure I see the similarity between GTExample and Announcements. Can you explain? >> I guess that you are referring to the issue "GT-Examples-Roassal2 should not be packaged in GT-Examples #1180”. I think there is a confusion, so I added a comment for that: >> https://github.com/moosetechnology/Moose/issues/1180#issuecomment-373904295 <https://github.com/moosetechnology/Moose/issues/1180#issuecomment-3739042... > > Yes but not only. > You see when we introduced Glamour in Pharo.

The design is overly complex. We invested in the memory leaks as well. But, I think it would be a pity to say that the investment in GT had only costs and no benefits :). > What we introduce in Pharo should be maintainable by the majority. > - method comments (look at Glamour not a single method comment!!!!!!!!!) > - decent class comments and not just plain shit “this class is abstract” > - tests and not with a super funky system that only one guy understand > - less use of Pragmas > - You see if > I use Statespecs and > you use GTExample and > denis use his testing framework because it is cooler > then > when we improve SUnit (which we will do) then fewer components benefit from it > we have to pay attention to Statespecs, GTExample,….. instead of ONE framework. > I do agree that one framework is important. Now, SUnit is around since decades and did not really change much so I do not think it would be such a bad thing to revisit its usage. GTExample is not only SUnit replacement, but also a way to document and communicate. I would be very happy to have a conversation about it. When I wanted to talk about examples a couple of years ago, there was not much interest for it. So, we went on to do our homework and now have significant case studies that drove significant projects, and now we can have that conversation with more concrete facts around us. > I think that Pharo will get a lot more picky about its components. So We are talking about Pharo 8.0 > so you can be prepared. But do not come to tell me that we did not tell it. Good. We will still continue producing components that are free and available and people will be able to pick them if they want. The cool thing with Pharo getting more modular is that now the cost of people trying things out is smaller so this should raise more interesting debates, which I think is a healthy thing. > I really think that Pharo 8.0 will be about massive cleaning up. > So as a community we will have to have a real discussion about Pharo 80 > because we will raise the bar and I will push all my voice for that because we cannot continue > like that. > I think that we should set some basic rules such as the tools we want for Pharo development and the quality rules.

This means that now we can reuse the learnings and infrastructure in both of these projects. > > > ahh. Now I think that we will face problems in Pharo :) :))))))) I meant the requirements are the same. Pharo should certainly not learn from Moose how to distribute code, but hopefully we can learn together :). Doru > >> >> >>>> And I also do not want to have 1 year releases. In fact, that is why for our work we actually use the latest version. The only reason why we did not have faster releases was that there was no reliable way to do it, except the manual way. Right now, we still do not have such a way for Git either, and this is not a problem unique to Moose. It would be great work on some solution for this problem to benefit all Pharo projects. >>> >>> With git I thought that you can reload a version and dependent components held in the same repository based on a hash. >>> We do not need to handle the versions as with MC but I think that this only works for components stored in the same repo. >>> This is why we should really think about what is Moose. >>> I will ask the experts around. >> >> The problem is when you have multiple repositories, and a deeper nesting level. Indeed, we do not have version methods, but we still have to change the string inside the baseline to point to specific version of a dependency. >> >> >>>> For Glamour and existing GT, we can deal with bugs at most, but we will not invest in further development. The memory leaks problem seems to have reappeared. This shows that we do not have the right tools for understanding it, and I would be happy to work with someone that wants to invest in this, especially when it comes to Announcements. >>> >>> Discuss with esteban.

We had a long discussion about this with Igor, and at the time he was guarding Announcements, so nothing was integrated. >> >> >>>> On the UI front, our complete energy is on Bloc, and the goal is both to produce the IDE for Pharo and to provide the browsing infrastructure for Moose. Over the past year, the main UI we used when working with Moose was the Moose Playground and GTInspector and it works really well. This shows that the investment in Bloc can pay off easily for Moose as well. >>> >>> I have large concerns about the engineering behind GT widgets and Glamour and overall super complex design of GT in general. >>> I can understand that you want generic solution but generic solutions have a cost. >>> Now I sincerly hope that the new version will be less complex because Pharo needs simplicity and often >>> you discarded this argument but this argument is real and it can kill us.

Now, before considering the cost of generic solutions, we should also compare it with the cost of maintaining 1000s of concrete use cases (such as inspector extensions). As you know, finding the right abstraction is difficult. For example, Traits underwent several implementations over 15 years, and now we have another one. You have a similar issue with Spec. For me, this is actually great.

Beacon was moved under the Pharo umbrella, but its integration was postponed multiple times due to various other external reasons in Pharo that were not under my control.
