Howard Stearns recently replied to a question from Mathieu. I thought I’d reproduce his response here. Howard gives a lot of very good information about Croquet support for third party tools….

Creating SqueakSource
SqueakSource is a web based repository for versioning and storing Squeak code. The subject of creating a squeakSource image came up on the beginners list.
Franz Josef Konrad posted a very nice “how to create your own SqueakSource image” response. By running your own squeakSource you can share code with other developers or use it just to keep track of your own stuff. Here are the steps to create a squeakSource image:

Storing ImageSegments Outside the Image
Avi Bryant has asked for help with Image Segments. He is offering to compensate anyone that can help to move some image segments to a file instead of increasing the size of the image itself. Please contact Avi if you would like to help with this latest community bounty project.

CallBacks!
The VM group reciently had a discussion about a proposal to add Callback support to Squeak. It appears that some people have missed the discussion. Speaking as one that was Squeaking without Callback support I would encourage the VM group to carefully review Andreas proposal and I’m looking forward to seeing this very much needed feature on our future VM’s.

Extra! Gemstone Goes Seaside!
The lesson here is watch which key you press! Dale Henrichs from Gemstone accidentally posted his GemStone code to the Seaside Repository. It looks like we can expect Seaside to work with Gemstone coming soon.
In Dales own words: We’ll make an announcement to this list when all of the pieces are in place (including information about downloading non-commerce/trial versions). Our target date for having everything ready is Smalltalk Solutions 2007. If things continue to go smoothly, we are likely to be ready sooner.
Remember you heard it here first! Ok well you heard it first on the seaside list, but you heard it here second!
