Hi Tim, Thanks for your thoughts. I will definitely go over your other email in detail when I have some more time and energy, and update some of my examples. Regarding this point, I think it's a really interesting observation, and I wonder if we should be looking for different keywords that read more clearly. For instance: using(new SomeManager() for $someResource) using($someResource from new SomeManager()) context(new SomeManager() giving $someResource) Regards, Rowan Tommins [IMSoP]
