I hope that it will use Boehm GC for garbage collection instead of its
own solution that must be tested and developed separate.

I'm using Boehm GC in my eiffel programs and it is much better then
the proprietary (but clever) GC implementation that SmartEiffel is
using. And the new versions use all capabilities of multi processor
machines. Something import in the future.

I'm willing to volunteer with the GC integration if it will ever leave
the vapourware phase. But remember that the GC decision must be done
very early.
