Yeah, that's something the working group will need to sort out. My sense is that at least some of that falls under the execution/runtime model. If you'd like to get a sense for one possible scope for the runtime model, Erik Kay and I have put together a strawman draft: http://abarth.github.com/sysapps/drafts/runtime.html Please don't worry about any of the details. That's all up for discussion once the working group starts in ernest. Adam
