I don't share your enthusiasm.
I once set up a satisfactory build environment for DrGeo, based on P3.
As long as I stay with P3, I can concentrate on DrGeo code: write the
code, then fire up a build script to deploy the application. Now porting
to P6 is a pain: the infrastructure to deploy a desktop application has
not evolve since P3, I have to build again a deployment environment from
scratch (VM support, shrinked/built image, I don't know the promise of
minimal image build up is not palpable for me).
Now If I have to spend days on that, I am not sure I will do it again, I
can't compete against other geometry application if I have to fight
against pharo too. What I want is to concentrate working on DrGeo not
Pharo, sorry to make it explicit but I can't much offer to do both.

Indeed.
I dreamed about the bootstrap in 2002:) so now I enjoy it:)
What I can tell you is that we will do another pass because we want
Pharo core around 200 k + 300 k for a slow vm. And we will have one
guy working on it during his PhD.
We will continue to push with Pavel, christophe and guille too.
