Hang on a second. You're making an "official" distribution that differs from
what Eliot is distributing, which in turn conflicts with the unix VM on
squeakvm.org. I happen to think that using the name "cogvm" to distinguish
it from the original "squeak" name (which is already in use for a different
flavor of the VM) is a really good idea. But please check to see if Eliot
agrees with what you are doing.
To be clear -- I support the idea of giving Eliot's cogvm launch script a
different name to distiguish it from Ian's original. But let's make sure
people agree with this (especially Eliot in this case) before changing the
conventions.
Thanks,
Dave
