If I understand correctly, Pluribus is CapTP + VatTP.

VatTP is the encryption/vat-identity component, and CapTP is the  
distributed reference component.

MarkM once told me [approximately] that CapTP is sufficiently complex  
that he considered it a better idea to write an E implementation and  
run (the as yet unwritten) CapTP-in-E on it than to reimplement CapTP  
in other languages.
