I am interested in making VW more Linux (and KDE) friendly - system calls, serial port, etc.
KDE
I am currently working on KDE calls - KWin::setCurrentDesktop(d), KWin::setOnDesktop(w,d), etc.
Once gnome finishes compiling, I'll look at making these compatible with gnome.
Filesystem
I also have some functions that use UnixProcess (instead of dll/c) - diskUsage:, freeSpace:, fileSizeLimit:, nice:, etc.
Serial
I had problems using OS.UnixTtyAccessor, so at some point I will look into it more.
x86-64
I tried the preview back in Dec-06, and it had some serious issue (which I didn't document, and don't recall now :( ), but I'll be trying it again when it is official.
Postgres
I am using PostgreSQL 8.2.0, and made a few changes to support it: PostgreSQLEXDISession class>>buildTranslationsFromPostgres
...
translations at: #timetz put: self fromTimeBlock.
translations at: #abstime put: self fromTimestampBlock.
translations at: #timestamptz put: self fromTimestampBlock.
