There's a lot in the paper about the concurrency control issues (promises, transactions, replication, etc) but little about access control (section 2.1.1). I'm curious in particular about "limiting access by controlling the lookup mechanism ...". Could you expand on this some and give some examples? Thanks. Also, are you assuming a fabric of mutually suspicious machines? Does your distributed transaction mechanism work across such a fabric? > We're not yet ready to release the code externally, In what form do you expect to release the code? Under what license?
