We are really happy and supporting pavel (and really happy that he restarted to work on his great minimal kernel for pharo). Now we want to focus on release 1.0. > Will this be the next pharo core image together with a script to load > the current packages that comforms the current PharoCore? Certainly :) > That should be a great improvement. Oh yes! This is nearly 10 years I'm expecting that and slowing pushing to clean clean refactor the system. There is nothing in Smalltalk that imposes a large image as a seed. Once I saw s# with a seed of about 300k and bootstrapping in 90 ms and that we could embedd in any C application. So ideally the kernel should be like spoon: a micro kernel and a object loader. But this will be for Pharo 2.0 I guess. :) In fact I would like to have a GNU like bootstrapping core from source too. >> It is the bleeding edge project that should help in Pharo >> modularization and cleanup.
