What is a sensical way to modularize the rest?
Key to the approach is precisely that we need not introspect within
modules which we will not (initially) be implementing. Thus we
need not concern ourselves with the internal structure of the
execution engine, or the memory manager if these are modules we
plan to leverage from elsewhere.
If we focus on getting a core built quickly, then what matters
most is a) the interfaces between the core and other modules, and
b) the internal modular structure of the core.
I think we'd all really like to see a core begin to take shape.
Understanding its internal structure and its relationship to the
outside world is the very first step.
I was really thinking about the classlibrary when I wrote that line,
and then started doodling on the internals :)
So , the classlib...
