Yes. While the attribute was MemberOfNest, we originally started 
referring to the "nest top" and that is the terminology I used in the VM 
implementation. But then it was suggested that it should be "nest host" 
and from that (eventually) came the renaming of the attribute. So I have 
changed all the uses (class names, variable names etc) from "nest top" 
to "nest host" in the VM code and tests.

Thanks,
David
