I haven't had the time to design and build an app using Traits, but I
have played around with the image that all y'all (if Andreas can use
the term then so can I :-) have made available.  I think that it is
great!  The paper was very clear about what Traits offer.  The
conceptual model is very simple to grasp.  It would take very little
effort to begin using Traits in my own code.  I look forward to
hearing about Traits TNG, and hope that a Squeak version is made
available.

Thanks for all y'all's work,
Joshua
