Given that Apple has killed off the OpenDoc technologies, and market acceptance has been dismal, we will not be supporting it.
Instead, we have developed a very light weight and simple model for application components called Replicator technology. One manifestation of is you can drag pieces of applications (like a "Check Mail" button or a "Clock View") onto a container like the desktop. This model is just a small extension to the existing powerful BeOS messaging/scripting system.
