I worry about the execution order and that supplyer code for evaluation might be conditional causing values from som previous event to be used by the consumer modules. I suggested marking the values with the event number. The supplyer might also just pass the variables along with the event and the mentioned problems vould be solved. But then comes up the new problem of removeing the variables from the event before it is written to where it has to go. You could also invent a global scratch pad with name-value pairs and have the scratch pad erased at the beginning of a new event. But may be this is exactly what you did.
