Agreed; I just went with Hash for the time being as a cheap implementation approach for now, and provide interfaces that allow Match objects to act in the various roles we have defined thus far. I fully suspect the actual type and implementation of Match will change as we define and understand the problem space a bit better. The rest of the items in Larry's message I leave for p6l. :-) Pm
