[e-lang] E is data-flow, not control-flow, correct?

please forgive my ignorance, i'm new to E, though i'm reading through
the walnut.

although i am very enthusiastic about secure distributed objects, i
have conerns about -- E seemingly built upon Java (not unlike SALSA)
-- that it is not a "pure actor" language nor is it "data flow"
(rather than "control flow").

any help abating my concerns would be much appreciated.  thanks!

p.s. i am interested in porting "secure distributed actors" to the
ruby language, which is already pure OO.
