Max is the code name of _(Tril)'s experimental project to create a universal address system _(integrated) with a dataflow evaluator.  

A universal address system allows free form linking, like _(Wiki), but will be used for all data and code within a computer system.  This is required for consistent _(metaprogramming) and is the foundation of a general-purpose _(persistent|Orthogonal Persistence) and _(distributed) store.

The _(dataflow) _(evaluator) uses _(pure) functions as its fundamental building blocks. As you build up expressions into new functions, types are checked as far as they can (_(partial evaluation)).

The state of the code is released, _(Common LISP).  The code was released to the public domain in version 0.1, which is a rough sketch but shows some of the ideas.
