If we're going to hit the February 30th release, I'm gonna need a little help.

At the moment I'm most of the way through getting objects done. And, amazingly enough, there's stuff to do that I'm not bottlenecking on. Specifically the object tests.

PDD 15, as it stands in the repository, documents the ops as they either do or will exist. I'm not going to change that, at least not now. Probably not ever, really.

We have a reasonably extensive set of tests for objects, unfortunately I've massively broken them all with the changes to the intruction set. What I need is for someone (or someones) to go through and patch up the tests to use the new, Officially Blessed(tm) object ops. Some of the tests will fail right now, as (for example) attribute inheritance doesn't work and the op to actually get a class' attribute offset doesn't exist yet, but it will, so...

This'd be a good time to dig into things. It's also probably the last chance for someone to try this and point out where things are horribly deficient. (Note that this isn't in reference to the deficiencies Mike Wallace is pointing out--that's separate, and something I've unfortunately put aside for the moment until this piece of functionality gets released. Sorry, Mike, but I've not forgotten!)
