<br>
" A devroom for the Pharo, Squeak, Amber, GST, Etoilé, Seaside,<br>
Moose Smalltalk projects & Newspeak as derived language.<br>
Smalltalk environments offer a very high development productivity,<br>
unmatched by their successors. Come do some pair programming<br>
with us and experience yourself the advantages of a real OO<br>
environment"<br>
<br>
The meetup will take place Saturday, February 1, 2014,<br>
from 9AM until 5PM, building AW. This room has 72 seats,<br>
a VGA video projector and wireless internet.<br>
More information will be available later.<br>
<br>
If there are volunteers to record video content, the FOSDEM<br>
organization kindly offered to provide needed equipment & instructions.<br>
Please let me know if you would be willing to spend some<br>
time pointing a camera at a speaker.<br>
<br>
Proposals on content and format are welcome.<br>
<br>
People interested in running a session should send me an<br>
email at<br>
stephan ( @ ) stack ( dot ) nl<br>
with 'FOSDEM2014’ in the subject and the following information:<br>
<br>
- Their name<br>
- The project they are associated with<br>
- A short bio, to be put on the website along with their speaker name<br>
- (optionally) a picture of themselves<br>

- A abstract describing the session in further detail.<br>
- The desired length of the session.<br>
- The desired time slot in which they want to hold the session.<br>
<br>
I will send out updates on a regular basis to the lists and anyone<br>
stating his interest.<br>
<br>
Suggested values for the duration are 55min, 25min, 6m40 (Pecha Kucha).<br>
The desired time slot is meant to help you prevent conflicts with other dev<br>
rooms in which you might have a talk or your travel arrangements.<br>

There are alternative, non smalltalk-specific tracks available:<br>
lightning talk and the main track<br>

First proposal already arrived:<br>
Stefan Marr proposed:<br>
I could give a presentation on SOM (Simple Object Machine) Smalltalk.<br>
<br>
I would especially go into detail of the Truffle-based and the RPython (PyPy) based implementations to show modern ways of language implementations with the goal of achieving high performance.<br>
