### Here's what I've been up to since the last WhatsUp:
- try to understand 32/64 bits status of interpreted VM, StackVM or CogVM. Looks like it is not clear, and I am still confused: there is definitely 64bits interpreted VM capable to run 32bits 1.4 Pharo image; does not work with > 2.0 image, and newer plugin will be problem? Not clear answer regarding CogVM compiled with 64bits libs to run 32 bits image.
you'll get quick answers if you ask on vm-dev. Currently I knowoif no work to allow Cog to be compiled 64-bit to run a 32-bit image. we're working towards 64-bit compiled with 64-but image. Eliot (phone)
- rebooting on Dr. Geo after a freeze of 7 months. Make it work on Pharo 2.0, several fixes, fix the mini-browser script problem using Nautillus for now https://bugs.launchpad.net/drgeo/+bugs?field.tag=pharo3
- iStoa continuing work: UI improvement, new activities.
### What's next, until 2014-05-31 (*):
- Look at the situation regarding TextMorph rendering on Athens. First re-investigation showed the situation is still the same as sept. 2013. It is one of the final peace to get DrGeo fully working on Pharo2 with Athens and produce a newer release.
- Update the iStoa build environment with the VM provided by Philip, it has a working keypad:) and it is linked against LTS distribution libs.
- Release iStoa 14.06.
- investigating again on the VM.
(*) we'll be expecting results by then ;)
