It would really be great if JPI could decide to call this no more Modula-2, as is usual for such major changes. Since this is a similar step from Modula-2 as C++ is from C, I propose to call it 'Modula-2++' -:). By the way, this is the stuff that I definitely do not want to have in a Modula-2-like OOL.
