[ANN] SqueakJS 0.2 released, now runs Etoys

Hi all,

my SqueakJS VM has reached a major milestone. It is now sufficiently complete to run a full Etoys image (and possibly other non-closure images, too). It has support for most BitBlt modes, WarpBlt, even some Balloon2D rendering (for TTF fonts), a virtual file system, image saving etc.

Try it: http://bertfreudenberg.github.io/SqueakJS/etoys/
(Safari and IE are significantly faster than Firefox and Chrome, best is Safari Webkit nightly, works on iPad too, hopefully Android)

For more details, see my blogpost:

Feedback and contributions welcome :)

This is a 3.8 image with Seaside 2.6. It complains that it cannot find the sources, which I think would be easy to fix. It's not using the sources I put in the directory with the image. There is a primitive fail with NetNameResolver as the picture shows in the debugger. I thought I might run the image in one window with SqueakJS and then see SushiStore in another window at http://localhost:8822/seaside/store. I only spent fifteen minutes playing with this, but this looks like some kind of hosting revolution in early stages.
