Having some
code to load will go a long way to answering my question, but more basic than
that, I have tried (and failed miserably) to trace Rome back to some
library/framework/etc. Is there any background reading I can do to see
where this might be heading? Any pointers would be greatly
appreciated.

Hello,
Indeed, I started to build a small package, integrating one by one things
working in Rome.
For now, the working canvas are:
- RomePluginCanvas (making the binding with cairo)
- RomeBalloonCanvas
You can see some examples in the class side of RomeDemo.
All is not working. You can have a look at RomeDemo >>
demoMovingCar, that should work with the RomePluginCanvas and the
RomeBalloonCanvas.
All that concern fonts is not yet integrated, a lot of thing are already
broken in the sophie dev image.
So all examples drawing simple form, without text, should work.
You can also have a look at the version of Alain plantec, from which I
based the package Athens. This is already a condense version of all stuffs from
the sophie image.
You can load it from: www.squeaksource.source/PharoTaskForces (load te last
version of 'Rome').
The next steps are:
- Integrate fonts
- The class RomeSVGDemo doesn't work
