Hello,
The INRIA site has 2.8pre3 -- is that the latest VM for Unix? I keep seeing references to 2.8p4 and 2.8p5 but they're neither at the INRIA ftp site nor at UIUC.
I think I have 2.8pre5, though the only tar file I immediately find is 2.8pre4. I remember it taking some hunting to find, and unfortunately I don't remember the details now. Maybe it was on the ftp site, and not the web site? Currently ftp.inria.fr seems to be down, so I can't check. If you get in, look for "INRIA", "Projects", "SOR", "People", and "Piumarta", though not necessarily in that order.
Was 2.8 ever officially released? Maybe Ian thinks that 2.7 is the current release, and that's why finding the 2.8 sources is so difficult. If 2.8 has been released, someone should email Ian. If it hasn't... how about we release it?

Hi Lex For your info the URL for 2.8pre5 source file is: http://www-sor.inria.fr/squeak/Jitter-3.1/
When I compiled this code I had to comment out in the Makefile all the references to the MAC build, otherwise it compiled smoothly on my system.
