I just started reading this book and I was wondering if the code for
the components described in it is available on line anywhere.
So far the book is quite interesting.  It is not parochial in that
even though the techniques are discussed in an Ada framework they
are generally applicable.

It is interesting to note that the taxonomy for software components
described in the book allows for both managed and unmanaged
components.  This is relevant to the current GC discussion.  Both GC'd
and non GC'd components have their place.  The important thing to
discuss is the specification of the component and not its storage
management policy.  Of course, the storage management policy will have
an impact on the specification.  One would expect, however, that GC'd
and non GC'd versions of the same components would have much in
common.

What I would like to see in this group is pointers to collections (in
any language) of useful components (such as the ones described in
Booch's book).  I would also like to see discussions about the
quality of such collections.  So far, for a group about reusable
code, there has been precious little code to reuse presented here.
