|  |  |  | Introduction | 
GOO is a dynamic type-based object-oriented language.  It is
designed to be simple, productive, powerful, extensible, dynamic,
efficient and real-time.  It heavily leverages features from many
earlier languages.  In particular, it attempts to be a simpler,
more dynamic, lisp-syntaxed Dylan [4] and an object-oriented 
Scheme [3].
GOO's main goal is to offer the best of both scripting and
delivery languages while at the same time 
incorporating an extreme back-to-basics philosophy.
GOO is freely available from www.googoogaga.org under GPL.
This manual is preliminary and relies on an understanding
of Scheme and Dylan.
