There are currently three "candidates": ST2JS, Orca and PharoJS.

As you can read in the second thread (see link above) the PharoJS image failed at first attempt. Therefore my question, are you aware of a working image?

Second, is there anywhere some detailed information available about what PharoJS does and, at least basically, how it's done? (Side-remark: This part is excellent for Orca, I recommend the Orca papers. Brilliant concepts!)

Hello Frank

A question: you wrote earlier about an 'excellent' Orca documentation? Where did you find it?

http://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/hirschfeld/projects/orca/index.html has a demo video and installation instructions for server (Squeak) and client (JavaScript)

Or is it this paper [1] you are referring to?

Regards Hannes
