    Hi Mariano,<br>
    <br>
    That is a good idea. The first problem that comes to my mind is what
    happens when the same message is under different categories in
    various classes.<br>
    <br>
    Thanks,<br>

                This is a question that gets asked from time to time.
                Maybe old timers could also want some interesting/useful
                problem to work on. <br>
                <br>
                I suggest that we collect a list of projects or areas
                where improvements would be good. We could host that in
                a .md document in the main repo, or perhaps a wiki page
                at GitHub. In any case, what follows is the first sketch
                I could come up with. Please answer with your own ideas,
                comments and corrections. <br>

                Rubén, feel fre to pick any! <br>

                <br>
                Ideas for helping Cuis <br>
                ================= <br>
                <br>
                Beginner level <br>
                -------------------- <br>
                - Read the Cuis book. Understand every detail. Do every
                exercise. Suggest corrections and improvements. <br>
                - Use Cuis. Play with it. Try every dev tool. Report on
                your experience. Write documentation. <br>
                - Do your own version of the Spacewar! project. Handle
                it like a real project, evolving your own version of the
                code and publishing it at GitHub or somewhere. Report on
                your experience. Document your process. Suggest
                enhancements to tools. <br>
                - Read the the stuff at <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev/tree/master/Documentation"
                  target="_blank">https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev/tree/master/Documentation</a>
                . Suggest corrections and improvements. <br>
                - Review <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="http://www.cuis.st" target="_blank">www.cuis.st</a>.
                Check consistency with <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev"
                  target="_blank">https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev</a>
                and <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis6-2"
                  target="_blank">https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis6-2</a>
                <br>
                <br>
                Intermediate level <br>
                ------------------------- <br>
                - Review / test / use Cuis packages related to
                Networking, Web clients, Web servers. Build toy examples
                using them. Report on the experience. Write
                documentation. <br>
                - Review / test / use Cuis packages you find
                interesting. Build toy examples using them. Report on
                the experience. Write documentation. <br>
                - Understand Morphic, and the Cuis specific aspects.
                Build a game. Something like Pac-Man for instance. Write
                documentation. <br>
                - Review the pluggable GUI widgets in Cuis. Compare with
                other Smalltalk dialects. Compare with non-Smalltalk
                widget libraries and kits. What is missing? <br>
                <br>
                Advanced level <br>
                ---------------------- <br>
                - Compare the various possible approaches to building
                web servers and web clients. Write documentation. <br>
                - Take the SVG package and turn it into and end user
                Vector Graphics designer application. Like a baby
                Inkscape. <br>
                - Review and update Sound and MIDI. Build a small music
                instrument. <br>
                - Build something like the old PhotoSqueak based on Cuis
                ImageProcessing package. <br>
                - Implement new GUI widgets for Cuis. A dropdown list,
                for instance. Or a multi column l <br>
                - Find a way to assess and describe which community
                packages work with each Cuis release (6.2, 6.3) <br>
                - Review and clean or update as needed the packages
                included in the main repo <br>
                - Check and correct or eliminate <a
                  moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="http://CorePackages.pck.st" target="_blank">CorePackages.pck.st</a>
                and <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="http://AllPackages.pck.st" target="_blank">AllPackages.pck.st</a>
                <br>
                - Check and correct AdditionalPackagesForCuis.md. Assess
                quality and upToDate-ness.ist. <br>
                <br>
                Advanced+ level <br>
                ----------------------- <br>
                - Design and build a framework for extensible and user
                configurable tool menus and keyboard shortcuts <br>
                - Ephemerons (VM support is there) <br>
                - Non-blocking FFI (VM suppoort is there) <br>
                - Unicode collation <br>
