It would probably be easier to implement, understand and teach one conecpt to solve covariant feature redefintion, restriction of export status and safe generics than to introduce different ways for handling each case. --[[User:Juliant|Juliant]] 20:28, 21 February 2007 (CET)&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
