Well, a lot of people will join him if he starts pushing, me first
(FWIW).
As I see it, Squat's working.image *is* more-or-less the minimal image we
discussed last year (it has one bit too much - the automatic connection to
the control image. I think that should be done by a command-line loadable
chunk of code so that people could build their own ways of bootstrapping
the minimal image). We've come quite a long way by stripping the full
image down to a base image, but Squat attacks this problem from the
correct angle, bottom-up.
You know, I've got this funny feeling that Squeak at the end of this
year will be quite different from what we've got now, and that's an
exhilarating feeling ;-)
