I got a query about getting Scratch to run on Android and I have to confess to knowing nothing at all about the status of any Android ruinable vm.
Is there one? Is it up to date? Where can it be downloaded? Does it come with chocolate?

yes, there is one, made for DrGeo. the process in the build server is red since a lot, but there is an usable VM at:
https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/view/VM/job/CogDroid/65/
after saying that, my knowledge of Android is zero :)
you might want to contact Hilaire Fernandes for more details.

Dear Tim,
I got Phratch (Scratch on Pharo2.0) on Android. It works but really slowly and I need someone to work with me on it… and I need time too :)
You can find how to install it there: http://car.mines-douai.fr/2013/09/installing-phratch-for-android-pharo-2-0/
I will be happy to answer your question if needed. Cheers, Jannik

Andreas Raab did the original Android Squeak VM. The squeakvm.org home page has links to this. I can confirm that it works because it is running on my cell phone.
Since then, the Android VM has been further developed by Dmitry Golubovsky:
http://lists.pharo.org/pipermail/pharo-dev_lists.pharo.org/2013-January/0730...
The Smalltalk bits are in the VMMaker repository in package Android-base.
If you follow the links that Esteban provides for the CI build, you will probably find the most up to date version of the Android VM. I do not have a link to the support code but it is probably referenced from the CogDroid CI job.
I think that if you download DrGeo for your Android device, you are probably getting the most up to date version of the VM.
The latest version is built from a Pharo image and Cog (oscog) VMMaker base. The name "CogDroid" probably refers to a StackInterpreter base as opposed to the classic Interpreter.
Andreas' original postings will probably give a good overview of how the VM integrates with the Android environment, and Dmitry's implementation should be considered current state of the art.
