Great, thanks. You are developing on Mach, right? I suppose threading comes
naturally there.

Do you think you will have a "real-time" GC that avoids blocking application
threads? I am about 15 years out of date on GC technology, but I have heard
people claim this problem has been largely solved.

And stop wasting time posting to USENET, and get Dylan out there! :-)
