#2Is SubstrateVM part of this release ?
Re: GraalVM: Run Programs Faster Anywhere
#3This is seriously huge. I wonder if it actually gets popular.
Can anyone comment on TruffleRuby ? What remains to be done for it to be production ready ? GraalVM page still mentions it's experimental.

#4Is SubstrateVM part of this release ?
Yes. Its behind the native-image command.

#5Great! Benchmarks of TruffleRuby vs JRuby vs Ruby looks very promising.

#6We changed the URL from the announcement post at https://blogs.oracle.com/developers/announcing-graalvm. Pretty sure the project page will be better for HN.

#7Am I correct in reading the license in Github that this is all GPL? Albeit GPL2 but still not some Oracle proprietary license.
"One VM to rule them all" reminds me of Parrot VM (for Perl 6). Looks like development slowed down a year or two ago. Back then, it got me excited as it looked like the "open source community" alternative to "Big Corporate Java".

If it really is, I’ll gladly start poking at it! That’s the only issue (licensing that is) that’s been pushing me away from Oracle these days.

Ref https://github.com/oracle/graal#license, appears that the parts you would want to distribute have the classpath exception which allows linking without messing with the license of your code (same as the JVM). The FAQ also covers this: http://www.graalvm.org/docs/faq/.

"One VM to rule them all" goes all the way back to mainframes and their language environments, with UNCOL being one of the first attempts in 1958.
