Following some discussion in the SmallEiffel mailing list, and some discussion internal to the SmallEiffel team, I'm likely to build the SCOOP subsystem for SmallEiffel.

I already made some attempts in the past, and Philippe Ribet had some good ideas too. I'm now reading a thesis by Michael James Compton on the subject, which (as any research paper) helps a lot in tidying my own ideas up. I do not exactly agree with any he says, though. Expect some paper by me in the near future :o) I'm thinking of making the system a bit more complete than what OOSC describes, or Michael's paper.

Michael made a SmallEiffel-SCOOP executable from the -0.76 version. I will not use his code but start from what Philippe and I already wrote.
