This is a relief ;-). I really appreciate prompt and helpful replies in
this list in spite of your tight deadlines. Thanks a ton.

I expect to contribute to VM code (Slang and platform/unix code). I just
returned to this list after a 3 yr break and trying to reorient myself
with the repo changes. If I understand right,
* Mainline for VM Slang remains at the above MC repo
* Mainline for VM platforms code has moved from
squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/trunk to opensmalltalk-vm github and issues are
tracked in this github repo.
* squeak SVN now works downstream of opensmalltalk-vm github repo for
squeak vm releases.
* pharo-project works downstream of opensmalltalk-vm github repo for
pharo vm releases.
* Issues specific to squeak/pharo packaging should be posted to their
respective projects and mailing lists.
* patches to VM platforms should be submitted to vm-dev for
opensmalltalk-vm and then squeak/pharo projects will pull them as necessary.
