[Cuis-dev] Morphic's design

[rabbit]

Thanks for the PDF, Ken. It is printing for later careful reading.

I would note that I was thinking there would be only 1 UIKitty for a single-threaded UI, although there would be concurrent eventual sends in. Reactive eventful and all. So the UI would be eventual.

Please run the code below to load Crypto and to see the BoxOfKitties model, without any Spectre class/method generation.

Here is the latest Crypto comment:

It is broken, as it is only displaying 1 litter of 4 Kitties, not the full 16 and the boxOfKitties ivar is not being set. Not am I demonstrating Neighbor sends. WIP. YMMV.

I tried in the following code, but it is also broken. I'll get back to you...
