I've digested Ian and Leslie's comments on this thread and think we're all on the same page now. I've been reading different papers and other OODBMs in trying to propose a querying syntax and am pretty close to completing this now. However, I have some doubts for which I'll need someone's help with, which will allow me to continue drafting my proposal.

I believe Ian (if it was someone else, I apologize for not quoting you) mentioned that we could, as a later phase, introspect the class and ask for the indices available in order to do some query optimizations. So my question goes somewhere along those lines and I'm wondering (please excuse my limited knowledge of Lisp and thank you for helping my learning curve) if it's possible to obtain the list of slots and/or slot-accessor functions for a given class.

Thanks,
Daniel
