Chris:

FWIW, I understand that :)
----------------------------

I know; I learned it from you.  :)  Your words carry a lot of weight around
here, but that email had so few, I was worried that it might not be clear to
someone else what you were saying.  I thought (and was right) that you were
saying "there *is* a relationship between Object and Class, but you still
should not include that arrow".  I wasn't sure that was clear from your
brief post.


----------------------------
A suggestion for this thread: I don't think you even need to consider
"kind_of?" style relationships for the main diagram. The main diagram is
all about superclasses (direct and implicit via 'include'). Keep it
simple that way.
----------------------------

Amen!  So no arrow from Object to Class, and all arrows the same color.
(And File points to IO.)
