Parrot has just been released: http://www.parrot.org/news/2010/Parrot-2.0.0 I would like to know, from the VM experts from the community, if this VM can be used to run Smalltalk. The site says that "Parrot is a virtual machine aimed at running all dynamic languages.". but I don't know anything about VM so this sounds to me a bit like black magic. Is there something in the squeak vm that is specific to the way smalltalk works or a generic virtual machine (maybe with a upper layer understanding Smalltalk specifics) can be used. Thanks for the answers -- Miguel Cobá http://miguel.leugim.com.mx
