I agree with that. That is why I am asking Chiusano about vetting. Composability is function of namespace aggregates. In and of themselves, they don't have complex failure modes, but their implementations can. We don't escape vetting the object models. len From: Rick Marshall [mailto:rjm@z...] actually len i think the trick is to keep building simple things that can interact. the total system can be amazingly complex, but each component simple, verifiable, and understood. unix was built on that premise, djikstra's predicate calculus almost dictates it, it is the heart of my database/application work and philosophy of how to build very large systems, but most importantly it is essential to the existence and success of the web - and by extension this group. so, in this matter i disagree. lots of simple things are still simple things, even if their interaction is so complex it can never be fully understood.
