Hi Rick! Welcome to Pharo! I think that most of us understand the value of being able to make run on Pharo an application written in ANSI Smalltalk. However, I believe that making Pharo ANSI compliant is not a priority at all. Instead, the highest priority for Pharo that many of us are working hard on is making Pharo suitable for business applications.
