Hi Tim,

ok - please regard it simply as my opinion - a decompiler cannot be
removed - it may be offered by a third party as in the Java world.

But how you will answer the question if you try to convince someone to use a
specific Smalltalk environment -
he will ask - it is your favourite tool - but is it maintained will it exist
in a few years, and so on.

By translating Smalltalk to something - a few years back there were at least
a demand on translating to Java -
you can maybe convince someone to make a decision use a high productivity
environment.

I didn't say translation is the king way - But it can be one feature which
helps ...

cheers Frank
