Cool.

You're quite welcome.

As you know, I'm not completely on-board with E itself. (*)  But I do
think that this is a _vastly_ important area of research.  And I
definitely want to spend more time studying E and object capabilities in
general.

And I do share the conviction that the current status-quo of operating
system, network programming and security is in dire need of improvement.

So I'm glad to do what I can to help.

(*) Actually, at this point, it is really just object-oriented
programming that I'm not sold on.  I've been studying Haskell lately,
and it has been a real eye-opener.  The power of purity, lazyiness,
and functional programming in general is impressive.

However, I'm still trying to make sense of what it means to spread FP
style across a distributed application.  Especially one that crosses
security domains.

Objects, and object-capabilties seem more natural at this level. 
Because you know who owns the data.
