Interesting is the dispatch inside objects. These have a delegate vtable which runs a PASM function. But it could be redispatched before by installing an appropriate MMD version.
I think we're going to want to think about this some. What was the basic vtable dispatch function that got delegated is now going to be the default function for the object, and I think we can leave it at that.
It does mean that we're going to need to get the notification system in so we can catch updates to the namespaces. I'll split the event/IO doc I'm working on into pieces and get that out so we can hit this next.
Objects need still further work, initializer, finalizers, and the TODO diamond inheritance test (hint, hint :)
I know, I know... :) I'll get to those in a little bit.

I won't have much time, 2 conferences here in Austria in the next 2 weeks.
So if someone wants to have a look at patches mmd_vtables 9 and 10 just go ahead. The only missing bits are the general DISPATCH_<function> macro and some dispatch function prototypes. The rest should be more or less some cut'n'paste work.
I'll take a look at it. Turns out I need it working in the next few days, so it's only fair that I actually make it work.

Yep. When these nasty ICU build issues are sorted out, then its 0.1.1 time.
Woo! And, I expect, Hoo! Then the fun will really begin. -- Dan
