Is Seaside a Squeak Fork?
Repeatedly people mention that Seaside maintains its own fork of Squeak, what is simply not true. To see some examples read this and listen to that.

Code Critics in OB
In this screencast I present 3 tools from the refactoring engine and how they are integrated into the OmniBrowser framework.
New Refactorings
In this screencast I present 3 new refactorings that were are not part of the original refactoring browser. I use these refactorings on a daily bases and I think that they are a huge time saver.

Coderspiel mentions Seaside in the article The right tool for the slob:
Google Chart Pair-Programming
Yesterday Marcus Denker pointed out the Google Chart API in a private E-Mail. I asked Philippe Marshall and Adriaan van Os to join me for a remote pair-programming session with the goal of writing a small plug-in to wrap that Google service in a convenient Seaside plug-in.
Squeak by Example
The open-source book Squeak by Example has been made public. It is an excellent read if you are new to Squeak and want to learn Smalltalk.
Process Browser
After showing that it is possible to write a debugger with the OmniBrowser framework, the next missing tool is the Process Browser:
Linux Days Geneva
I will give a Seaside presentation at the Linux Days - Rencontres Open Source et Logiciels Libres in Geneva. My talk is scheduled Tuesday, 22 Mai at eleven o'clock. After the lunch break Stéphane Ducasse will give a presentation on Squeak, the open source Smalltalk where Seaside and a lot of other cool things are developed in.

An OmniBrowser Debugger?
The Squeak debugger (1396 lines of code) is hard to understand and impossible to extend. The OmniBrowser framework is powerful and enables one to build extensible meta-driven browsers. Yesterday evening I thought that it would be the time to bring the two things together:
