> Unfortunately trying to release a Smalltalk creation into production always turned out to be the most complex task. Smalltalk is an island. A beautiful island you can get lost in for years. But still an island This was always something which prevented me from really digging deeply into Smalltalk -- a nagging feeling that I was tossing bits into this VM, and eventually it'll work the way I want, but it's now bound forever into the particular VM and that I wouldn't even be able to get a code listing out. I'm sure I was over-dramatizing the challenges for myself, but I would really be interested to hear how you actually do get source code out and distribute it to others.
