I would like to create a new team (actually "old" project because I'm already working on it :) )
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.

Bryce? I am sure he could help with this :-)

Hi Eliot--
This seems to be a hit. :) Okay, I updated the Teams page and created mailing lists for those teams.
thanks!

I would suggest looking at the classes in GNU Smalltalk so that we may end up having something compatible, but I already hear the FUD (Faster Unfounded Doubts) team screaming.
Anyway, this stuff is pretty well documented, so I can make a pdf of the docs so that you can rebuild it cleanly.

Easy answer: Release that code under MIT and there will be no problem.

How about unit tests under MIT? Could serve as both spec and compatibility test.

That's a very good idea.
In the meanwhile I'll prepare the docs.
