Slides from my Peak6 Talks
I've posted the slide decks (PDF) from yesterday's talks in Chicago. It was a lot of fun, and I think the audience enjoyed the talks as well.

A Good Day in Chicago
I had a great time at Peak6 today - I want to give a huge set of thanks to Karla Yeh, who made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in the door this morning. The whole group at Peak6 was nice, and the talks I gave were well attended (and had good questions as well). I hope the audience enjoyed the day as much as I did - I'll be posting the slide decks I used soon.
Cincom Smalltalk Update Changes
As I previously reported, Cincom is changing the way they deliver updates - Arden Thomas pushed out a few more details today, and asked for comments:
We are also experimenting with the delivery mechanisms of the maintenance releases, with full installations or in-place updates. The fall maintenance release full releases will be: ObjectStudio 8.3.1 and VisualWorks 7.8.1. VisualWorks will have an optional process to update a 7.8 installation. The future target will be online updateable maintenance service packs.
I'll share more details as they make them public - I think we'll try to get Arden on the podcast when that happens to talk about it, too.

MagLev 1.0 Ships
Gemstone (VMWare) has shipped MagLev 1.0 - as reported by InfoQ:
MagLev 1.0 has been released: MagLev is a Ruby VM built on GemStone/S, a 64 bit Smalltalk VM. But MagLev is much more than a Ruby VM, it comes with a mature NoSQL data store, from the website:
MagLev VM takes full advantage of GemStone/S JIT to native code performance, distributed shared cache, fully ACID transactions, and enterprise class NoSQL data management capabilities to provide a robust and durable programming platform. It can transparently manage a much larger amount (terabytes) of data and code than will fit in memory.
