[e-lang] Module naming and identification

[Lex Spoon]

Bill -- Cool!

Mark.... whoa.  I agree that's the same framework I am using,  
described back in 2000.  Maybe I even read it; I can't remember!

I have to ask: your first message mentions cycles specifically, but  
three messages later you still didn't address them.   Do you have a  
pointer to that issue?  It's highly relevant for modules.

Finally, I would slightly quibble about the discussion of DLL hell.  I  
agree that, e.g., choosing the module author's latest version of a  
module will inevitably lead to incompatible modules, rending of hair,  
and gnashing of teeth.  However, such a choice is subtly different  
from choosing a *distribution's* latest version of a module, which  
IMHO looks pretty good.
