I do have to
say I
sympathise. The majority of squeak projects are referred to without
sufficient context. As a recent example on the squeak list,
'hobbes' was
talked about with much enthusiasm without any reference to what it
actually was!
Hobbes is a VM written in Smalltalk being able to simulate the
original Smalltalk-80 images: <http://wiki.cs.uiuc.edu/VisualWorks/
Smalltalk-80+in+a+box>
Anyhow back to the topic, perhaps pier needs some
marketing speak.
Mission statement, tag lines etc.
I completely agree, however -- as it is in the open source world --
everybody is invited to contribute: the code repositories are open to
commit, the wikis are writable for public, there are slides on my
homepage to give presentations, etc.
Cheers,
Lukas
