<p>
+ Sierra is the reference implementation of our Reputation Management
+ System. It is based on the Talon component framework and defines our
+ RCE plugin mechanism.
+
+ <p>Sierra incorporates various subsystems which should be used by most

+ <h4><a href="http://talon.openprivacy.org">Talon</a> - Reputation based
+ Component Management System</h4>
+
+ <p> Sierra is based on a flexible component system which we call Talon.
+ Talon is designed to be a simple yet powerful component system similar
+ to <a href="http://www.mozilla.org/projects/xpcom/">XPCOM</a> or <a
+ href="http://www.microsoft.com/com/">Microsoft COM</a>. Talon solves a
+ number of problems with these existing systems and also incorporates
+ Reputations (Sierra) as part of its Component factory mechanism. Since
+ Talon uses RCEs to determine what components to return, natural
+ selection can take hold and a Talon-based system can "evolve" over time
+ to become more efficient and powerful. This mechanism is very similar
+ to advanced <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/hotspot/">profiler
+ technologies</a> but works with distributed systems.</p>
