[squeak-dev] I would like to create a new team (actually "old" project because I'm already working on it :) )

16 Dec 2008


      Hi All,
    in response to Janko message about teams I would like to create two new
new teams called:
Faster Execution Engine
and
        Faster Interoperability Engine
(suggestions as to what FUM could stand for gratefully received).
Yes, you smell the blood of an Englishman.  I would like to be team leader.
 The tasks are:
Faster Execution Engine:
    produce an execution engine that supports closures and provides
performance broadly comparable with other Smalltalk JIT virtual machines, of
the order of 10 to 20 times faster than the current VM for benchFib.
Faster Interoperability Engine:
    produce a more flexible and faster FFI based on and integrated with the
execution technology in FEE.
best
Eliot
