Episode Synopsis

In this episode I discuss the paper "Modula-2 and Oberon" by Niklaus Wirth.  Modula-2 introduced (it seems from the paper) the idea of having modules with explicit import and import lists -- something we saw at the start of our look at module systems with Haskell's module system.  I note some interesting historical points raised by the paper.
