Hmmmm ... I thought the 'iron curtain' fell down *before* Arachne got
released. Guess the Russians are still saying they invented everything
and outsiders are wrong in claiming it is their work. <MG>
But, it's hard to tell some software apart. If you look at parts of
Bobcat they look surprisingly like Arachne. It could be that once a
methodology is developed and works, others are going to attempt to
follow the same proven approach.
