We are developing an object-oriented database that uses ISIS to
implement certain forms of daemon methods. The object descriptions
are in C++ and we've developed some methods that communicate with
other objects (in other databases) using ISIS. It's all pretty buggy
and on-hold, temporarily, while we are distracted by VMS, but I can
send you some additional information if you are interested.
