Hi alex

First we are discussing with inria to see if one of their engineer can 
work a month to check what jb did.

Because JB was revisiting the VM from scratch but he did not finish.
It will be on the roadmap for the new engineer the consortium will hire.

Second you can find information about the way Jannik deployed Phratch on 
Android

Hi

Any news on Pharo VM for android? ;)

Hi All,

thanks to hard work by Tim Rowledge and Lars Wasserman we
now have a functional JIT for the ARM in the simulator. We're
still probably some weeks away from a functional ARM JIT VM;
issues like instruction cache flushing on real hardware can be
tricky to solve.  But we're at least ready to start trying to
compile the JIT VM for ARM.  Doug, see that I added a build
directory for build.linux32ARM/squeak.cog.spur. Hopefully a
fast VM for Raspberry Pi and Android is only a few weeks away.

Android needs also some java crap in the middle (along with an “idle vm”) to 
work… just ARM support is not enough. 
But there was CogDroid some time ago, kind of hacky but worked and there is JB 
work who I hope is taken and finished eventually/soon. 

btw… my idea is to take JB's approach to “idle vm” and (once finished) 
translate it to regular VM… consuming a constant of 5% cpu is not good at all :(

Alex,

have you tried building a Cog VM from the Cog svn sources?  I expect,
provided you hack around the NativeBoost uses, that the VM will work.
