I think so. It's basically a (considerable) waste of time trying to come up with ways around the current, and hopefully short term, limitations. I had thought Parrot was a little further along than it seems to be. Sadly I think it's best to consider the DBDI project shelved until Parrot and IMCC get reasonably usable objects and method calls. I *really* hope that can happen for the February release. I'm CC'ing this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the hope that it'll spur on development. Tim. p.s. I just saw Leo quoting Dan as saying "The low-level object design will be done by Jan 30th." so hopefully it won't be long now, and hopefully IMCC won't be far behind.
