Dear Hermenn,

I downloaded your code and documentation.  The documentation and code seem
to be well done.  

I have the following question to you and others who might read the post.
What inherently mathematical uses (or math programming uses) do you see for
OO technology?

I can see the graphics uses for the capability.  I understand the
information hiding capabilities of OO facilitate large scale
multi-programmer projects.  As a very good programmer, I understand what OO
is trying to do. What I don't understand is how it makes Mathematica significantly
better.

Richard
