btw, to go directly to that branch...
https://github.com/pharo-project/opensmalltalk-vm/tree/headless

I'm really glad to see smalltalksrc on github for its accessibility.
The concern then is synchronization with the original Monticello repo.
Could a branch "headless-tracking-vmmaker" be created as a pure-mirror
updated by a daily CI job
so Github Compare View  can be used to easily see differences (
https://github.blog/2010-03-01-introducing-github-compare-view/)
This would make it easier for anyone to experiment locally merging in
vmmaker updates without needing access to the particular conversion-tool
being used.
That is, it would fan out better to potential contributors.

It might be useful to similarly have an independent
"headless-tracking-extracted".
How is the extraction currently being done?
Is it a script being run adhoc by particular people or is it run by a CI
job?
Again it would fan out better to potential contributors to not need access
to the extraction script.

cheers -ben
