It seems to me that the most active place where development of Morphic is taking place is in the context of Lively Kernel. Is anyone tracking what the LK people are doing and seeing how it can be backported, or used to create a new version, or integrated with the current version of Morphic or Cuis, etc?

I have not looked at Lively Kernel for a while and I must say I'm amazed by how much they have progressed. PartsBin is really cool. This is just so much fun. I must bite the bullet and grok the JavaScript language some day.

Karl:
I agree, I have played with LK last week and this week quite a bit, and it does look and behave amazing (I am itching to say "especially considering its rendered to the DOM" :) ). It dawned at me it is closer to Squeak in concept (and now in functionality) then I realized during the last few years trying it on/off - each page is "almost" an image (one bootstrap external js file imported at startup), you can drill into objects and code although I still am missing some things etc). JS is not really that big of an obstacle http://javascript.infogami.com/Javascript_in_Ten_Minutes (not in ten minutes but this has almost everything one needs)
