I just deployed some HW-dependent distributions of the Jivvy runtime
at
http://demos.jivvy.org/jivvy-runtime
Every distrib file encloses a jre folder for one of the archs
presently supported, so that the JVM used by Jivvy does not
interfere with potential existing JVMs. In any case nothing is
installed at the system level. The file may be extracted anywhere
and the installation folder removed at any time.
The files are quite big, 50-60MB, so if any of you already have a
1.7 JVM the download page of the Jivvy site,
https://wiki.jivvy.org/wiki/jivvy/getting_jivvy,
may provide a more convenient file to download.
Sorry guys, I reckon this might sound a bit pushy but the talk can
result more interesting if a couple of you (but even more, of
course) are willing to install the runtime.
However, if someone also has the guts to give it a go, the language
reference is at
https://wiki.jivvy.org/wiki/jivvy/learning_jivvy
(any sort of feedback is welcome).
Note though that in such a case, you must also install the
Jivvy server. You
can drop me a line at any moment if you have problems or questions.
p.s. The https website is still in flux. The browser will still
complain about the self-signed certificate.
