Hi, yes please. I got this part running in my framework. Works well, but I didn't check how good it will scale. But optimization is an other topic, which I will address after the basic blocks are all working together and the concept stabilized. > Also began reading the FRAMEWORK part - Interesting the way > you did to bring together the concept with the STL because > this is in part what I tried to express when I talked about > templating in my last email. I got this iterator pattern running as well. IMO on of the best ideas about STL is to seperate the iteration, predicates and functionids. This is a very flexbile, powerful and dense concept. The nice thing is, it fits very well into Rebol. > But you also go further with the > idea of BO that I am not really knowledgeable about - is it > something similar to the concept of the PATTERNS approach ? Well it's not that magic. Mainly my idea is to use some central base from which users can pick pre-defined BO structures. These structures are not static but give a good first start. The biggest problem today is that we can't formulate how different address objects for example should be related. I'm going to address this with BO and a type concept.
