Aah, that explains a lot. ;-)

I'm not sure how many people will actually use JNIPort in Pharo or Squeak
and need callbacks. Yes, I am interested, but given the small amount of time
I have available for JNIPort, it may take some time until I can do something
with your prototype. Also, JNIPort is currently just a hobby, and I will not
use it in any kind of production software myself. I'm not sure if this
qualifies as significant interest. ;-)

Thanks!
