`There have been several requests for further references on CRC cards.
`CRC stands for Class name, responsibilities, collaborators. See OOPSLA
`Proceedings 1989 pages 1-6. This is the original paper as far as I know.
`It is by Kent Beck, and Ward Cunningham and is entitled "A Laboratory
`for Teaching Object-Oriented Thinking". 
Also see pp. 71-76, "Object-Oriented Design: A Responsibility-Driven
Approach", by Rebecca Wirfs-Brock and Brian Wilkerson.

`The best description I have read is in a soon to be published text on Object
`Oriented Programming by tim budd, department of computer science,
`oregon state university, corvallis, oregon 97331. He devotes Chapter 2 to the
`method. He has used it in his course at Oregon State. I like the new
`Grady Booch text on OOD but was suprised that he made no mention of the
`CRC method.
Also nearing publication by Prentice-Hall is _Designing_
Object-Oriented_Software_ by the same authors as above.
