There will be two images: "Pharo-Core": the image in which the development of Pharo takes place "Pharo": the image to develop your application with (= "Pharo-Core" + IDE tools [1]) "Pharo" is the image that will be officially shipped (packaged as a one-click image). "Pharo-Core" on the other hand will be important for deployment as it has a low memory footprint.
