Exupery, a bytecode to machine code compiler (a JIT) for Squeak, now has it's own mailing list. Join if you're interested in either helping develop or using Exupery. Exupery is currently 15% faster than VisualWorks for the bytecode benchmark and twice as fast as Squeak's interpreter for the send benchmark.
Exupery's next goal is to become seriously useful. So join even if you're interested in using a beta compiler rather than writing a compiler. Some user domain expertise would be helpful. I know very little about graphics, multimedia, Morphic, or crypto which are all things that might benefit from a little more speed.
The list is here: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/exupery
