Panic and TheCodingMonkeys just announced Coda and the Subetha engine.
We are proud that this kind of collaboration now crosses application borders to the benefit of all Coda and SubEthaEdit users.
Great. I just find it a little funny that the infrastructure of these collaborative tools is developed in a non-collaborative way…
Thankfully we have Gobby, an open-source equivalent to Subetha that has been crossing platform and even implementation borders for some time now.

Strongtalk is a rethinking of Smalltalk-80 with an optional strong static typing system; it was bought by Sun before it could be released to become the basis for the Hotspot Java virtual machine. Now Sun just released it under a BSD-style license.
It currently only compiles in the m$ world but hopefully that will change soon.
Update: See also James Robertson’s report and David Griswold’s announcement on the Squeak list.
Update 2: Avi Bryant also mentions Strongtalk while answering to a post on Ruby performance by Joel Spolsky.
