Also, it's Danish, not German. :-)

Also known as MVC before Rails decided to redefine the term.

Man, this brings back memories: I was visiting this and k10k.net daily for inspiration.

FileReader support is not fully implemented (addEventListener is not present). Just ran into this last week.

There has been an open issue for this for three years[1].

If you are looking for an on-line resource nick_dm's suggestion for http://www.learnprolognow.org/ is spot on.

If you would like a book, I cannot recommend "The Art of Prolog" by Sterling and Shapiro enough. It gives a very understandable introduction to the language and is focused on teaching you how to approach different problem spaces while "thinking" in Prolog.

What is the added value beyond what `bundle outdated` does?

I would be interested in a patched version of Monaco as well.
About a year ago, they claimed they were developing a web-based editor. That is some significant focus shift.

Does anyone have information on what triggered it?

A much more recent and complete book on the same topic:

Regardless of XCode 4 free or paid, it would be nice to have a compiler separate from XCode. Installing the whole IDE you never use has always seemed like an overkill.

GNU Smalltalk supports both file based and image based development. Exporting source files is no means to an end — image based development is not widespread because it forces people out of emacs and vim.
Another recently developed alternative by Ilya Birman:

And another one by Viacheslav Ilinskov:

IMO, both are better as far as the aesthetics of the connecting stations is concerned.
