ESUG 2009

September 14, 2009 15:01:08.896

ESUG 2009 in Brest, France was a great success this year - we started with my talk, "Smalltalk is Hot", wound up with Instantiations and Cincom talking about their upcoming releases, and along the way, learned about a whole lot of cool things happening in the world of Smalltalk:

  • Seaside 2.9 has been renamed Seaside 3.0, and is very close to beta
  • All the Smalltalk vendors will be supporting Seaside 3.0
  • The ESUG Innovation Awards were filled with spectacular projects, and the winners - as usual - had great stuff.  You can watch the video of the Award Ceremony here
  • All of the slides, photos, and video links will be appearing on the ESUG site

It was a great conference, and it will all happen again next year, in Barcelona, Spain.

June 2nd, 2009: Smalltalk Seminar in Cologne

May 12, 2009 11:30:19.634

I really enjoyed the Smalltalk Conference in Minneapolis, where I was invited to present STIC and to give a presentation with the title "Smalltalk: Yes, we can!"

This conference will be repeated in Cologne in Germany Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009.

I would appreciate seeing many of you there and for many more Smalltalk conferences

Smalltalk Events in April

April 3, 2009 11:01:31.733

I mentioned that there would be various smaller events in the Smalltalk world in lieu of Smalltalk Solutions this year; we now have confirmation of two such events, from Cincom and Instantiations:

This is the best way to get information from the vendors you care about most.  And don't forget - FISL (Brazil) is looking for Smalltalk speakers, and ESUG 2009 is coming up in August - they are looking for speakers now.

2009: Several Smaller Smalltalk Events instead of Smalltalk Solutions

December 17, 2008 17:02:02.305

Dear Smalltalk Solutions Fans, dear Smalltalkers in general,

It is at this time each year when your STIC Board Members announce the dates and location for the next Smalltalk Solutions.

After many meetings where we discussed the current economy and what we’re observing with company travel and conference expenses and even conference attendance at other recent events, we have come to the decision to postpone Smalltalk Solutions for 2009. 

We have decided that better use of our energy would be to participate in events that will help to expand the Smalltalk community.  

Some events we have considered are:

  • Support of existing events like ESUG
  • Barcamps – a few select worldwide
  • Other events     

We would like to get your feedback regarding additional events for us to consider and other ways you feel STIC can help the Smalltalk Community to grow.  We would also like to see the community start to participate more in visibility and awareness for Smalltalk either by sharing application information to be promoted on the STIC website, post speaking engagements on the STIC website or any other activities that can help to spread the word about Smalltalk.

Please email me at georg@stic.st.

Thank you.
