I can think of this module where I used it to extend some basic Erlang functionality in a similar way than what Kresten at basho-labs did in hanoidb

I also did a quick search on github to see who else was using it for open source projects. This is what I've found:

	- People at Beam.js use it in erlv8 for their objects
	- Ivan Dubrov uses it in siperl for transactions
	- claimstrade uses it in maru for its models
