Steph, I completely agree. This type of hyperbole makes the casual observer think that the Smalltalk community can come off as petty. We're better than this. We should ALL have the goal of promoting Smalltalk. I know that a lot of you have and I applaud all of you for your efforts. The more the merrier.
I personally welcome any and all exposure to the benefits of Smalltalk, if it's positive. I may not agree with everything that is promoted, but as long as it has the potential of converting people into looking at Smalltalk, regardless of the version, then I'm OK with that. So, I plead with everyone, both creators and critics, keep it civil, positive, and centered on the goal of promoting Smalltalk. (We can't eat our own and expect to survive).
