Well, maybe. It is required if agents (mobile object) have to be supported
on the OS level.

I never heard about it.

I am satisfied with Ada 95 OO model. It was consistent but incomplete. Now
it must be made finished. Major things to add are:

1. Classes for all types
2. MI
3. MD
4. Supertypes
5. Procedural types
6. Proper construction/destruction

For OS:

7. Non-cooperative multitasking
