Okay... I'm fiddling with Squat while my boss isn't around :-P.
Are Squat's modules "live"? That is, do they have their own threads and
memory, so that messages from one module can travel to another module
and be processed there? I know (or think I know) that Squat can import
methods, and send remote messages to other running VM's.
In terms of NameSpaces, are these (going to be) managed in Squat? Can
you give a module access to the NameSpaces of (pointing in air) that
module, that module and that module, and no other?
Keep the good work up! It's nice seeing a working VM with browser etc in
less than 2Mb uncompressed.
