Hi phil

yes I loved this idea. We got burned by that too.

About pillar. The departure of Damien was not expected and it slows us
quite a bit.

We (mainly me helped with maxime) are working on
- making the pillar core nicer
- less dependencies
- and with a small in image renderer :) We had fun with guille


- In the pharo 60 version I started to clean the command-line.
- merged many unmerged changes.

But even with all the tests it is not easy....
I'm testing in addition with reall
- book production
- slides
- html

But it takes time and energy. I'm trying to remove the dependencies to
magritte for example.
