It is going slowly. :-) I'm doing a lot of things at the same time,
like most people here, I guess. I'll made a release as soon as I'll have
something interesting to show.

I'm working on independent morphics so you can use them for whatever
else you want. There are already some nice music related morphics in
squeak. But they're too tied to the built-in music functionalities which
basically are just the midi protocol, sample playback and fm synthesis.

For other developers interested in this, there's a very easy to use
foreign function interface to call whatever library you want from within
squeak.

Anyway my idea is to use squeak as some sort of interactive sequencer
(but using mainly OSC instead of MIDI) where a squeak project ( a .pr
file) will be the equivalent of a document.

Ciao,
