Hello,

I just came across the garbage collection system Andreas Bogk mentioned
at the Dylan Geekend of the CCC Dresden. He believed it to be vastly
superior to any other GC currently in use. It is available in source,
but seems to be non-commercial only.

(Of course SML does have its weaknesses, but by comparison, a
 discussion of C++'s strengths and flaws always sounds like an
 argument about whether one should face north or east when one
 is sacrificing one's goat to the rain god.)         -- Thant Tessman
