Hi,
Sorry for the delay in responding, I'm on a concert tour in China at the
moment.
To answer your question, yes, BOSS and all the other packages mentioned in
the build script are parts of the VW release (i.e., they're on the VW
CD-ROM and are loaded using the package manager, not in the Siren ZIP
file), or are on the Cincom Store site. Take a look at Arden's script
(attached).
You don't have to build the image from scratch, though; the Siren ZIP file
has a pre-configured VW virtual image (Siren7.5.{im,cha}) that ought to
work for you out of the box.

I'm trying to install Siren in VisualWorks 7.5. The trouble is, I'm not
only new to Siren, but also new to VW. So I'm stuck at the very
beginning, at installation.
The instructions on the Siren website have the following.
To build Siren, you start with a 7.5 VisualWorks Smalltalk virtual image
and load the following packages from the release file set,
Store/PostgreSQL
BOSS
DLLCC
Advanced Tools
HTTP
XMLTools
ComposedTextEditor
I presume this mans that the PostgreSQL package is not in the Siren7.5.zip
download, but should be installed from the VW store server. I did that
successfully.
But for BOSS: is there supposed to be a BOSS package in the Siren7.5.zip
download, or am I supposed to get BOSS from the VW store? I don't see any
BOSS package in the Siren7.5 directories, but maybe I just don't know
where to look. At the VW store the only BOSS package I see is
"BOSSClassMappings". Is that what I should load?
