Hi guys I will send a following mail. We should probably synthetize and put them some summary on the web. Stef Begin forwarded message:

Hi Laurent,
I've just seen you reply me in private. Do you mind if I forward your mail to Pharo & VM mailing lists, to see how we can improve communication and collaboration between projects ? I don't want to start a "counterproductive" flame war, I hate this, so maybe we can write another mail which doesn't offense people ? Maybe you have ideas on this ?
How about we just say this...
It seems there is a complete lack of communication within the Pharo community regarding the virtual machine and its development/support. VM development and support (including bug reports and fixes) are discussed on the vm-dev mailing list. Both Pharo users and Squeak users are equally welcome there (and both communities should avoid discussing VM problems on their respective developer lists, since the people who should see those VM bug reports are more likely reading vm-dev than the other lists). Problems that appear to be platform-independent should always be reported to the vm-dev list. Problems specific to a particular platform should be sent to the maintainer of the platform whose e-mail address is included in the release notes or in the download area on squeakvm.org.
Nobody could be offended by that? :)
Cheers, Ian
