(the plan is to integrate the newcompiler into Pharo as the main and only compiler. I always was skeptical because this includes commitment<br>
(time) to make it really nice. And I was reluctant to commit to that with it being done in my sparetime. But that now changed with a new Job :-)<br>

I am not opposed to work with anyone who wants to put in work to keep it the compiler working on Squeak. But I myself will not do this.<br></blockquote></div><br><br>I'll spend some time making the NewCompiler work with modern Pharo images then. <br>
<br>I need a working compiler and I'm not particularly fussed what it runs on. SecureSqueak runs inside a "host" image and has few dependencies on existing classes.<br><br>Gulik.<br clear="all"><br>-- <br><a href="http://gulik.pbwiki.com/">http://gulik.pbwiki.com/</a><br>
