} What properties do we desire a generic object to have?
I think that we need to consider the object model before we consider the
"root" object.
Personally I think that it should be language-independent so modules could be
written in any language. This will probably add some programming overhead to
non "native" programming but I think the flexibility is worth it.
I kinda like the Self object model (but not the syntax of the language).
See <A HREF="http://self.smli.com/">http://self.smli.com/</A> for info.
For some more info about OO languages see:
<A HREF="http://vismod.www.media.mit.edu/~tpminka/PLE/">http://vismod.www.media.mit.edu/~tpminka/PLE/</A>

Another possibility is to use the COM or CORBA models.
Have fun,
Alex.
