Hi, Aleph is the fantasy name of the index manager. Basically, it is a set of indexes we are using on the image. As Esteban said, everything should work in Pharo 8, but it requires harvesting some changes I have made in the Pharo 9 image, so I will try to do it this week. Today I will try to fix some of the issues while generating the indexes the first time. The only issue is that it takes a lot of time, I want to reduce it to something usable.

Hi Pablo,
Great news! We are eager to test this. Do you plan to backport the changes for the large images to Pharo8.0? Or should we try a 9.0 to try it?
Also, what is Aleph? (I cannot find a description in this list thread...)
Cheers, Vincent Blondeau Lifeware SA

Monday morning, so I spam to tell what I have done last week for Pharo.
### Last week:
- Integrating Spotter processors with Aleph - Testing problem with Pharo8 and Metacello loading. - Debugging problem with SDL in OSX Pharo8 VM - Adding classes indexes to AlephIndexManager - Adding a baseline to load Spotter + Aleph + Completion: this improves the spotter/completion and senders/implementors/... for large images. An announcement will arrive when I have better index generation times. - Generating a Big image for testing (using github.com/tesonep/pharo-image generator) - Commenting and fixing PR - Deleting closed PR from Jenkins - A new version of the VM for RHEL (32 / 64 bits) - Improving the performance of the indexes of Spotter
### This week... idealy (starting 2020-03-23):
- Improving Large images index generation time. - Fixing Package List / Categories in Calypso - [VM] Fix symbolic links in Pharo8 VM - Adding a label to a PR when it has no test errors. - [OSSubprocess] Integrate Pavel + Christophe windows version. - [VM] Check the crash dumps in an endless loop - [VM] Improve the usage of Stdout and Stderr, in a correct way - [Pharo9] Propose a PR for Fuel to support Sista - [VM] Fixing Tests in Idle. - [VM] SDL Plugin for Idle. - [VM] Improving Speed of TFFI. - [VM] Writing tests for JIT generation
