As I actually found, there already is an implementation of a DCI-System
in Squeak/Smalltalk. You can find an article, a documenation and a
download on
http://heim.ifi.uio.no/~trygver/themes/babyide/babyide-index.html

Also given is a DCI-Maillist:
object-composition (at) googlegroups.com.

One might be interested in "The Common Sense of Object Oriented
Programming" by Trygve Reenskaug
