The reason I brought it up was that Steve's paper states things
in English exactly the way I did, which means you have to reverse
the second two elements in your mind when reading the descriptions.
I can't say that I really see anything about the language that is
object oriented per-se, it looks like a very simple declarative
configuration language to me. C++ it ain't. (thank god) :-)
Just some thoughts after coming back to it after over a year
