I don't know what you're referring to, Bert. The Eiffel code has most 
definitely been written as an implementation. We are using it. ADL Workbench 
is built entirely in Eiffel. The Ocean Archetype Editor, which is written in 
VB.NET, uses the Eiffel kernel classes in the form of a .NET assembly.

Maybe you've been looking at the Eiffel code via EiffelStudio's "contract" 
or "interface" views: these views hide the implementation of the classes.
