Hi florin
I'm thinking about a nice mop interface that would let people define
such a different slot semantics.
By any chance do you have still in mind how yours were done and how
you specified their semantics
If you have any information on that direction this would be great.
(I'm born in CLOS and its designed mop
is also trying to drag me there... :)
