What we are doing is MUCH more than just a build system, we are building
a system that will
        - increase our trust in the system
        - show credibility to the world
        - show that we can control risks even with an evolving system

I think that this is important for people willing to invest in Smalltalk to see that virtual machines
and the software is following adequate **engineered** practices.

Thanks igor for all the energy you are putting on that.
Soon we will start to have real fun at the image level.
