                       Didn't you mean "tagged types" :-)

Can we take this as an indicator that you are about ready to
abondon the "tagged type" terminology and adopt the more
appropriate "class type" terminology?  It seems that even
members of the 9X project are shying away from using "tagged
type" these days, so why don't just finish the scenario and
adopt the "class type" syntax and terminology ...

fingers crossed...
