This is cool news:

All the functionality of Cloudfork-AWS is now also available for Cincom VisualWorks 7.6. With Cloudfork-AWS you can access the Amazon S3, SQS and SimpleDB services from a simple to use Smalltalk interface. The code is available on the Cincom Public Repository.

That's an announcement from Ernest Micklei - I know he did the work in Squeak first, and has also ported it to VA Smalltalk. That means Smalltalk now has portable access to the Amazon cloud. That's really cool - I'll have to start playing with it.

To load it, either load the package Cloudfork-AWS, or the bundle Cloudfork-All. Also, see here for more installation instructions.
