Most-pressing, after the 5.3 release, is to finish the GraphQL engine. This project is a dependency for several sub projects involving the gradual modernization of Squeak's API services. The first pilot is intended to provide an API schema for SqueakMap, with a vision of allowing clients to provide an "App Store" experience that users expect. I recognize the development community's interest in git and github, and glad we have some tools to help us use them. However, there's a definite "partition" between Squeak's projects based on how / where they're hosted. SqueakMap can help with this for the consumption use-case, but I'd like to explore deploying a development server that hosts Git's v4 Schema, but **backed by Monticello**. Together with GitBrowser, we can start to blur the lines between MC and git, help unify how we work with projects regardless where they're hosted. Some big think and collaboration will be needed, so I'll be asking you for ideas and help. The above notwithstanding, my priority and focus remains with Squeak's external users and uses over its internal ones. As fun-loving engineers and computer scientsists, we can build cool, internal whiz-bang stuff in and for Squeak all day long to entertain ourselves, but I believe its when and where Squeak interacts with someone or some thing in the outside world that all the work we've done becomes meaningful. Where and how we design these interactions to occur within the IDE and applications determines Squeak's effectiveness with the real-world uses. With all this and more unfinished business, I'd like to re-up for the Squeak board again. Having the ability to communicate verbally with the core members at the meetings is essential. Thanks for your support of Squeak! - Chris On Mon, Jan 6, 2020 at 11:15 AM Ron Teitelbaum <ron-EQT66SJPuutWk0Htik3J/[email protected]> wrote: > Hi All, > > It's that time again.
