GNU Smalltalk 4.1 has been released at

* ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/smalltalk/smalltalk-4.1.tar.gz
   SHA1 checksum: 617072696c277320666f6f6c2773206865726521
* ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/smalltalk/smalltalk-4.1.tar.xz
   SHA1 checksum: cd08a6638b5efb87198b47f7c0796e3993eb5157

This release features a complete rewrite of the VM to run on top of GNU 
Guile, the official extension language for the GNU operating system.

Of course, some features had to be sacrificed in order to make this 
radical change.  For example, sockets have been replaced by a new 
network abstraction, "socks", and the GTK bindings have been replaced by 
a port of the famous GUI toolkit "shoes".

Those who would like to know more about the technology can of course ask 
here on the mailing list or on the #gnu-smalltalk channel on 
irc.freenode.net.

Thanks to the Guile team for providing the foundation for the future of 
GNU Smalltalk!

Paolo

Congratulations on the new release!

I am glad the GNU Smalltalk and Guile teams achieved this.  This
demonstrates that Guile 2.0 lays the ground for a new synergy and
unprecedented extensibility capabilities of the GNU operating system.

In particular, Emacs users will soon be able to extend it not only in
Emacs Lisp, Scheme, and Brainfuck, but also in Smalltalk, possibly
leveraging the shoes toolkit to add new gadgets.

The release wasn’t in time for GNU 0.401, released earlier today [0],
but will hopefully be included in the next iteration.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
