First of all, thanks for all your comments.
The project that I (and others) want to do is E-Alterego.
An exhausting description of the project is on http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/3200.
In order to realize the E-Alterego project I'm organizing a network of venture capitalists all over the world (mainly Europe and U.S.A.).
The plan previews the completion of the project in about 3 years: all the software must be completed and tested by a team of 25-30 persons in a maximum time of 24-30 months.
The total financial resources estimated to complete the project amount to approximately $25-30 million (distributed on 3 years).
As core development software platform, the idea is to use the better Smalltalk environment today in circulation, but with some architectural re-designs and enhancements, mostly regarding Formalisms, Active Protocols, Bytecodes, Packages, Concurrent Developing, Concurrent Multiprocessing, Distribution, Persistency, Security and OS-Behavior Aspects.
Squeak is an excellent candidate, mainly for the following reasons:
- E-Alterego project needs to produce very low-level software;
- the project needs to construct extremely advanced systems and development environments;
- the project could be partially supported by an open software community, therefore contributing to the growth of the community itself;
- the Squeak license is not a problem;
- in Squeak there are a lot of very brilliant ideas;
- in the Squeak Community there are a lot of very brilliant people.
Regards,
Enrico Bertini
