My understanding is that one of the design-specs of Lively Kernel Morph was to allow easy porting of the original Smalltalk-based Morphs to LK. To that end, they incorporate the OMeta parser with a built-in St to JS translator.

Well if there is a widget that can be easily ported and be useful to people I 
dont see any harm in taking an interest in other Morphic implementations.

No, you don't understand. Morphic is not a code base that is compatible. It's a 
pattern. Like MVC. Imagine someone requesting form Smalltlak
to work with, what, Ruby on Rails because they are the ones that "define the future 
of MVC".

Patterns are abstract ideas. Of course you can be inspired by ideas. But that is not 
"working together".
