At this very moment I think we just need to make sure we can load OMeta and XTreams into the release 4.2 and the ongoing development trunk version so that people can compare and get a better idea.
1) Randal, in January I loaded XTreams into the current version at that time. You recently did as well a trial load, what is the script to load it?
2) Regarding OMeta, I did a load I think last October --- what do I need to do as of now to load it?
3) Does somebody more closely follow the development of PetitParser and Helvetia on the Pharo side and could give a short report on what is happening there? (Or just some pointers to helpful Pharo list mails)
