mircea_popescu: [Update 12 Jan 2010: OK, I didn't get it done by Sep 2009. But I have been working on an advanced "Live Object" mechanism for Loom which will support not only Vending Machines but any other type of feature as well.]
mircea_popescu: [Editor's note: Actually, the author of Loom has been planning a two-way internal asset exchange mechanism known as a "Vending Machine" for some time. It should be rolled out within a few months, probably by Sep 2009.]
