Hi Dima-

I just attended YAPC::NA 2017 and saw an
interesting talk by Stevan Little about
the latest (possibly final) version of
his work for a Meta Object Programming
model for the Perl 5 core.  He released
the first version of his Moxie :

http://search.cpan.org/~stevan/Moxie-0.01/lib/Moxie.pm

which looks very promising because the
approach is so simple and lean (of course
I haven't been able to build/install on
cygwin or strawberry perl portable yet!).

The MOP seems elegant enough that I was
wondering if it might be used in other
areas.

For example, in the PDL::NG (Perl Data
Language - Next Generation) work I would
like to have the bindings symmetric between
the C/COS/XS layer and the upper level
bindings.  By framing things analogously
to MOP, UNIVERSAL::Object,... might make
for an elegant solution for PDL.  I was
wondering if there might be a potential
benefit for Prima OO as well.  At least
I think you'll find it an interesting
read.  :-)

Cheers,
Chris
