* Femi is hacking on tabs.js to make files available
* Clement is translating benchmarks
* Kim is writing the book and has done a first lab
* James is working on other stuff (but hopes to have a day later in the week)
* Tim is integrating the IDE stuff (and eventually the backend)
* talked a bit about === operators
- make == programmer definable
- but strongly discourage people from redefining it
- what is the conceptual model?? can we keep EGAL's sprit while disavowing it's letter
- immutable objects can be == based on values
- mutable objects should only be == to themselves (identity comparison)
- yes we want a low-level primitive identity operator as well?
- could be in a sys library
- could be done via reflection
* confirmed identifiers do not include underscore
* James to email Kim re visit to Eelco thurs/fri before ECOOP
