Speaking about compilers and the like, I was wondering if Squeak
would benefit from being run on a Java VM?
The positives I can see are that they are already installed on heaps
of machines, they have JIT's and the like, it allows people to
concentrate on other areas of interest. I am sure there are a lot
more...
The negatives are: if you don't have a JVM for your platform, you're
out of luck and we wouldn't be able to fiddle with the VM. Also, is
there some heresy here?
Anyway, I just thought I'd mention it...
