Hi,
   first of all excuse me for forgetting to cite "Spoon" on my article.
I am subscribed to the mailing list, and I have tried it a lot of time 
ago.
The Spoon approach is very interesting because it is very original and 
can compete with the so called "network language" (read: .NET and 
Java).
We can assume Craig's Spoon a very smart way to achieve the minimal 
image.

Answering to Hannes Hirzel, my primary goal is the opposite: to mantain 
the first "Rock Solid" image, to keep the fears
  about instability to the minimum, and to have a measure of the 
abandoned code/packages/methods in the Squeak Major subsystems.

By the way, after some discussion on my article, I will send an email 
to the guide to give my help to the Rock Solid project, adding more 
details to this idea.

....Happy new year :)
