hmm. If that means Traits aren't really essential to Pier/Pillar, I 
wonder why they are being used. Is this intended to balkanize and 
fragment the Smalltalk market  a little more? I guess we've already 
lerned that fragmentation is not a good base for a viable market.

That's an interesting point. I guess if Traits show to be useful, it 
makes absolute sense to look into them - not only for Gemstone but also 
other vendors.
Don't get me wrong: I wouldn't mind if Pharo takes the lead on 
Smalltalk. Better Pharo does than we all stay on our ivory tower or 
balloon for another 25 years, looking down at the rest in disgust, 
because "that was all invented in our language - we just never finished it".
