I have an idea.

To make Smalltalk really free, free and politicaly independent, we
should develop a Smalltalk version ourselves. We all know how
Smalltalk can be bad or good, sometimes excellent.

I don't know how to implement Smalltalk , that's why it would be a
good idea if somebody would share with us his knowledge about writing
Smalltalk implementation. It would be hot! Specially it was free. 

Please, anybody, who knows how to write Smalltalk implementation, let
us all know how to do it. It should be an open system. Everybody would
benefit. Nobody would depend on one or other vendor.

Please, post any info here or you can contact me on : vlad@world2u.com
