That Roar vision caught my eye...you have my vote (assuming I get a ballot) Please keep us informed of your work! From: Merik Voswinkel <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date: Fri, 08 May 2026 09:18:05 -0400 Subject: [squeak-dev] Squeak Oversight Board Election 2026 Hello fellow Squeakers, I want to run for a seat on the Squeak Oversight Board for a third time. I almost had enough votes to get elected in 2025 and 2024. What can I write to persuade you to put me at the top of your voting preference on the Board Election https://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6675 Sadly the elections have been a popularity contest, not a meritocracy. I agree with Eliot that we should establish some funding structure for Squeak. I endeavor to give Squeak a parallel VM and language implementation according to David Ungars RoarVM implementation. I extended Squeak VM to support Apple Silicon (GPU and ANE). I preserved Squeak, Smalltalk and the work from its implementers since 1981 in a growing 23 TB digital archive.
