	~~What can learning about eiffel teach folks?~~
	~~Why~~ is ~~eiffel~~ a ~~great thing~~ to learn ~~about? maybe expand it~~ that ~~way~~.		EiffelStudio is a complete development environment available on numerous platforms. With a long history, the simplicity of the Eiffel language and its modular structures make it possible for newcomers to start contributing after a surprisingly short amount of time.

			The Eiffel language is distinguished by the following properties:
			* Full object-oriented model (not a hybrid with pre-O-O approaches).
			* Genericity (constrained and unconstrained), inheritance (single and multiple).
			* Design by Contract mechanisms (preconditions, postconditions, class invariants) for: analysis and design of reliable system; specification; automatic documentation; testing and debugging; control of the exception and inheritance mechanisms.
			* Agents (closures, i.e. high-level function objects, with the power of lambda calculus).
			* Designed for garbage collection and for highly efficient executables (performance comparable to C or C++).

			In addition, Eiffel is not just a language but a method of software development emphasizing software engineering principles such as: seamless development (covering the full lifecycle, not just implementation, in a consistent way); reversibility; uniform access; open-closed principle; command-query separation. These principles are developed in the book "Object-Oriented Software Construction" (Bertrand Meyer, 2nd edition, Prentice Hall), one of the all-time best-sellers in computer science, Jolt Award winner. The consequence for students is that using Eiffel for the Google Summer of Code means the ability not only to produce programs but to learn a software engineering discipline that will help them throughout their career.
