Just a thought out of thin air: wasn't filetree supposed to provide
common ground for this kind of scenarios? If we shared a single
repository in github that would save us a lot of discussion :P

it doesn���t :)
while exporting VM-Glorp to github will simplify a lot the process,
truth is dialects are so different they cannot talk each other in
general, and changes needs to be applied (by hand).

I know it sounds like pipe dream, but I had the impression non-dialect-specific parts of Glorp (that is, most of it) is (was?) deliberately written in subset of Smalltalk (not ifNotNil: but isNil ifFalse: etc.) that it aimed to actually _be_ portable.

That part at least (and the high-level part with descriptors, mappings, queries, glorpexpressions etc. is such) would be nice to actually be generic enough to be "any Smalltalk out there".

Herby

but��� having a github mirror to be able to diff properly is a good thing.
