Hello,

After looking at Quartz Composer and thinking/researching the matter I
think making Workflow.app take an object oriented 'dataflow' approach
may be better than my previous diagrams.

Wikipedia has an article about this to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dataflow_language

I've also been thinking that it would be better in the long run if
Workflow.app became a language in it's own right. The code generation
sounded like a good idea at first, but I'm not so sure about it now...


You might find this bibliography on Visual Programming languages quite
interesting...
