Hi Giorgio

Glad you like it. There is still a lot of exciting things to develop in 
the area of computing/education. I will say the most exciting things has 
not been developed yet and Smalltalk/Cuis looks to me as an 
exceptionally tool to go there.

Regarding the meeting, yes, we had to make tradeoff on the timeframe. In 
the future, if a lot more people are interested to join the Cuis 
Meeting, we can imagine to have a rotating timeframe ;-)

Regarding the port from Pharo and to develop my answer to Benoit. 
Porting from Pharo to Cuis required more work than porting from Squeak 
to Pharo, mainly because the Squeak version of DrGeo had less features 
than the Pharo version had.

When porting to Cuis I also simplified the code. For example I 
originally introduced a three levels abstraction costume/style/morph in 
Squeak/Pharo because at some point Morph could have been replaced by 
something else. When porting to Cuis where Morph is a solid foundation 
to rely on, I removed the costume to only have style/morph

Thanks

Hilaire


Glade you like it. There is still room for improvments.
