Hi Steve,
I’m not sure about the image based environment to be honest.
Speaking to devs who looked at Smalltalk and never took it up, one of the
reasons why was they could never get their heads around the image based
development. Is this an opportunity to move away from that and help get
Smalltalk back into the mainstream? Maybe.

I had a look at the IronRuby
code and it seemed to depend on the MS Scripting libraries. Is the DLR suited
for an image-based environment?

Hi,
Yes I did. As far as I can see,
this is written against the CLR itself and not the DLR. I'm just back from the
MVP summit in Seattle and I was speaking to the DLR guys out there and they are
not aware of a project for Smalltalk to target the DLR and would be interested
in one.
Cheers,
Gary

Have you looked at what John Brant and Don
Roberts did with #Smalltalk?

Any Smalltalkers on this list interested in a project to port Smalltalk to
the Dynamic Language Runtime? If so, ping me back an email.
