# novy-syndicate
A follow-on from Syndicate-2017, incorporating object-capability-based
securability and other ideas from E.
You can view this as Syndicate plus locations and capabilities, or as
E plus Syndicate-style shared state and fault-tolerance.
The capabilities offer *securability* of Syndicate-style
point-to-point and multiparty communications, a necessary precondition
for wider use of Syndicate-like ideas.
The locations offer abstraction over *distribution* of Syndicate
systems, a necessary precondition for modular reasoning about and
reuse of Syndicate subsystems.
