That's a pretty good suggestion. The only aspect of the problem this
doesn't seem to cover nicely is the direct object transfer from child
A to child B. This form of transfer is of the "object-sharing" kind,
but I'm not sure publishing is the right term to cover it.  I would be
quite happy to describe all aspects of the Journal interface for
making things public as publishing, though.
