  16. Jcon (http://www.cs.arizona.edu/icon/jcon/) is another implementation of
  17. Icon.  (Its implementation is completely independent of the standard
  18. implementation.  For instance, there is no I-VM in Jcon.)

  29. I think that the crux of the issue is that the current (and as far as I
  30. know only) implementation of Icon is what we currently have to work with.

  34. If one where to redesign and reimplement the I-VM, (such as in JCON) then
  35. different facilities could be used.
