I am considering to move from KEE to C(++)-based shells, and I have
tried to use PC/KAPPA in some projects.  It has been interesting,
but there also are many (PC-caused?) compromises, like no reasoning of
multi-valued slots, no reasoning over classes, and no multiple
inheritance.
I would like to know if anybody has worked with both Pro/KAPPA
and PC/KAPPA and could compare the two, especially in the points
I made above.  What are Pro/KAPPA's limitations if any?  
Has there been any thorough review of it in any journal?
(I am new to the newsgroup.  If there's been any discussion here
 before of Pro/KAPPA, I'd appreciate receiving material.)
