Name Change for Metaobject Protocol?



The CLOS use of "meta-object" also seems right to me.  I agree that
there would be some degree of confusion if we were presenting CLOS
primarily to an audience steeped in Smalltalk-80, which is what one
experiences at OOPSLA for the most part.  But for the Lisp people, I
don't think the differences between our meta-objects and Smalltalk-80
metaclasses are a big enough problem to try to find some other
terminology.
