>The Bistro project is an attempt to host a variation of Smalltalk on the
>Java virtual machine. I've finally posted the first draft of the Bistro
>compiler and the initial implementations of the behavior and magnitude
>classes on my web site at the above URL. Please examine them at your
>convenience. There's still much work to do, but I felt that it would be
>best to involve folks from the Smalltalk community earlier rather than
>later. It's my hope that this early release will give you a taste for
>the direction and possibility that Bistro offers. Please feel free to
>send me feedback on any matters related to this project.

>If you're on this distribution list
	[not meaning the squeak list in general - di],
>I presume you have some interest in
>Smalltalk and/or Java. If you know of anyone else who might be
>interested in this project, please forward a copy of this e-mail to
>them. If you do not wish to receive notification of updates on the
>Bistro project, please send me e-mail to that effect and I will remove
>you from my distribution list.

>Thanks for your time.
