That is right. So this is a problem changing the code and maintaining
our own vm. It's too much work without the necessary expertise. But on
the other side the combination of vmmaker/slang/c does also not attract
anyone to get into the vm stuff. So we would be bound to that a long 
time. 

Wouldn't Spy (http://pypysqueak.blogspot.com/) be a benefit in the long
run. I'm very interested in vm stuff (at the moment just reading). For
me it is much more attractive approach I would try to dive into. My
opinion is that it is more flexible and opens worlds like LLVM 
(http://llvm.org/) and friends for us. What do you think?

A lot of people are using git these days. So this must have something
good.
