[self-interest] Re: Uses of self

[David Ungar]

Glad you like Self. I get more email than I have time to read, and I'm lucky to be busy inventing the next great language (I hope), so you won't hear much from me.
I am prototyping it in Self.

(If you are curious, there is a recording of a talk Harold Ossher & I gave last fall at SPLASH (SPLASH-i) on the new language.)
