In the Structure Overview section of docLang, I think there is a typo. I believe the word "overridden" in the following sentence:
"All slots are keyed by a unique name. This means Fantom does not support methods overridden by parameter type like Java or C#."
Should be replaced with "overloaded".
I think the syntax of override is based on the override keyword, which is used to overload methods.

Whoops, my bad. I kinda confuse those two. In that light yeah, it's probably an error.
Thanks I pushed a fix, the proper term is overloaded not overridden
