Thomas,

OK, thanks.

This structure of a module containing objects with 
associated methods appears to be very similar to the 
mathematical category containing objects and maps.  
So an AO module might be viewed as an instance of 
a category.  Probably this aspect has been discussed 
in the literature.  Anyone know of a specific publication?

Thanks,                ... Peter E.
