Hi Aik-Siong--

     Now that I've gotten a release of Caffeine out[1], and written some
blog posts about it[2], I've turned my attention to Pharo in web
browsers. I also want Squeak and Pharo in web browsers to communicate
with their native counterparts, and with other Smalltalks. My goal is a
federation of live collaborating Smalltalk nodes on the net. I also have
SqueakJS controlling and reprogramming NodeJS instances.

> Do you have a roadmap?

     Bert and I worked on it a bit at ESUG 2016, and it was going
alright. Very conservatively, I expect to have it finished this year
sometime.

> How will WebAssembly help or not with project?

     I think WebAssembly will enable us to run Cog, with the usual web
security compromises. That's also something I'm interested in working
on. It may make the SqueakJS virtual machine obsolete.


     thanks,
