Hi Jaders.

I am a newbie at Jade, I hope some of you guys can help me out here.
Have an assignment due in 48 hours time!

I am currently building something a simple system which consists of
buying and selling agents.
There is a couple of information regarding the things the seller would
like to sell.
For instance, his selling price per unit product, quantity of sale
products, delivery method and stuff.

I need to build this system really fast and soon and I hope I do not
have to implement the complex
Ontology system ( I read about it in the programmer's guide but not sure
if it applies to me. It all seemed complex!!).

The ACL message only allows a string content slot. Is there a way I can
send this object containing the wealth of
data pertaining to the contract/agreement ? If I can send this object
thru the ACL message, it will be much easier
for the other party to read the necessary infor ( ie selling price,
quantity, delivery method.etc).

Many thanks in advance.

Regards
David
