Well... I for one think it would be great to have the ability to extend
the IDL language. Slow progress is being made on IBM's data explorer (now
OpenDX) which was released by IBM to the community. I will simply be
happy when the interface for pointer/heap variable is released so I can
properly build IDL objects in C and fully encapsulate the internal
structure of my data!

On the subject of software models, lets all hope we don't see IDL `XP` and
idl.net anytime soon ;)

Cheers,
Randall
