When object technology was the rage in 1993, I went to Hynes Auditorium and met the SAP sales people.

I discussed VHDL(very high level design language used in semiconductor mask design) with them. In 1994, at Hynes, they showed the design language for their object technology software; they had troubles with some words in the English language(that you have to select the processes they have available manually) to convert to search engine keywords. I told them to ignore them(selecting processes).

Germans tend to stick to details, but once they ignore the meaningless words, in 1995, they had a successful software that blew all the competition away that generates solutions(best of breed generators), because search engines can do keywords for data mining and do processes to complete a solution by desires expressed in VHDL by users. Like, "find customers(in accounting) and sell them red shirts(by email)?".

Since 1995, there is no more object technology conventions anywhere.
