Unexpected, indeed.

But, the cool thing is that Moose popped up in his mind in a seemingly unrelated area. From this point of view, Moose is not just an analysis platform, but it became an example of how "reprogrammability" (which is just another name for reflective environments as I would call it) can become practical.

So, it is as much a positive thing for Moose as it is for Pharo. Did I mention that I think that Pharo can use Moose as a killer app? :)

Cheers,
Doru
