I believe in Redline. I think it's a very important project, strategically. On Twitter and elsewhere, I am urging contributors to join Redline. It would be something of a tragedy if Redline failed to reach version 1.0. *We need Smalltalk on the JVM.* jamesl wrote
Hi Smalltalkers,
Redline Smalltalk is not dead although it looks like it. I recently made the grammar much cleaner and moved to using Antlr4 as well as cleaning up the internals. Yes - what is in the core project in github is dormant and I have spun off 'stc' to contain the the work Im doing until an appropriate time to merge back into that main.
I'd love some help but right now you would be limited to copying across the runtime library and writing tests around it as I concentrate on the bytecode generation and underlying code - which is hard to have too many people helping with.
I'm *very* busy in my life right now with a startup (http://mywave.me) and personal life but I really am trying to find the time to push this along.
I've set myself some fitness, work and Smalltalk goals for this year and all going well Redline will be out in September. BUT - Please don't hate me.
This is the Year of Smalltalk and we can change the world - one JVM at a time ;)
- James. Redline Smalltalk
