The proposal EVAL-OTHER:SELF-EVALUATE in Issue: EVAL-OTHER (Version 2) was
voted on at the October 1988 X3J13 meeting and accepted. This does not
preclude a subsequent proposal to make the "self-evaluation" of objects be
a standard generic function where only the default method is the identity
function, but might change the wording in which you would couch such a
proposal. If you were to use the "cleanup" committee's proposal format, you
should use a different issue name, e.g., EVAL-GENERIC.
If you (or anyone) wants to see the guidelines for cleanup proposals, let
me know.
