Feed Description: James Robertson comments on Cincom Smalltalk, the Smalltalk development community, and IT trends and issues in general.
I'm now in the early days of a (commercial) product, preliminary name 'Stardust Smalltalk' (based on Squeak, not VW), that implements the ideas from my blog - better UI, alternative forms of code navigation, new packaging/deployment tools including GIT integration and modularity enhancements, WebKit integration, LLVM/Clang integration. A very early screenshot is here. I mention this to show that my comments above are not abstract opinions. I'm in the trenches with these issues.
