Fabio, this is very exciting! I saw your presentation at ESUG. It was absolutely jaw dropping, and definitely one of the highlights of last year’s conference. Please accept my sincere congratulations! I am also excited to see what people will do with it. Well done!

Hi all,
I'd like to officially announce the first stable release of TruffleSqueak [1], a Squeak/Smalltalk VM and Polyglot Programming Environment for the GraalVM [2]. As some of you know, we at HPI [3] have been working on this for quite a while and open-sourced it a few weeks after our presentation at ESUG'19 [4].
The virtual machine is implemented in Truffle [5], GraalVM's Java-based language implementation framework. The image has direct access to GraalVM's language interoperability protocol [6] and based on this, we have adapted the workspace and inspection tools so that they work consistently for objects from Javascript, Python, R, Ruby, and all other languages supported by GraalVM. In addition, the image comes with our polyglot notebook system [7] and a polyglot code editor [8]. You may also find our paper on TruffleSqueak (formerly GraalSqueak) [9] and our blog post on "Smalltalk with the GraalVM" [10] an interesting read. Nonetheless, please keep in mind that TruffleSqueak is a research project, so there will be bugs (please report them at [11]) and things left to do (feedback is welcome!).
You can follow TruffleSqueak on Twitter [12] for more updates. On June 24, I'm also going to talk about TruffleSqueak in the UK Smalltalk User Group meeting [13], and you are invited to join us.
Lastly, I’d like to thank everyone who has contributed to TruffleSqueak and I'm excited to see what you’re going to do with it.
Fabio
