Some of the changes / new features include
------------------------------------------
- enabled policy-based access control in the JacORB version of OODTE.
Digital signatures still not working in JacORB version.
Visibroker version of OODTE is now broken.
[Franklin, Oct 3]

- changed release strucutre. The cvs/source directory tree and the release
directory tree are now the same. We also just give out compiled tarballs
for now.
[Michael, Sep 15 2001]

- added --generate quogen flag to selectively generate qosket, adpater or both
[Michael, Sep 16 2001]

- quogen cleanup: removed CSL and SDL parser and backend. In addition, cleaned
out CDL parser. As a result, the source code size of quogen shrunk
significanly
[Michael, Joe, Sep 14 2001]

- generation of native language (JAVA / C++) interfaces from qosket
IDL interfaces added to quogen. In the past, people had to hand write both
the IDL interface (Qosket.idl) plus a native language interface (Qosket.java).
quogen now generates Qosket.java/Qosket.cpp from Qosket.idl automagically.
[Michael, Sep 8 2001]

- added very simple downcasting support in ASL. The use of IDL types in ASL
still has to be revisited.
[Michael, Sep 11 2001]

- added -i2jpackage cmdline flag to make makefiles easier for jacorb.
[Michael, Sep 10 2001]

- fixed bug in generation of C++ delegates, which caused coredumps in cause
of undefined regions.
[Michael, Sep 10 2001]

- cleanup up quogen: removed legacy CSL code that was not needed anymore.
In addition, clean up code in general by removeing old cmdline flags.
[Michael, Sep 10 2001]

- refactored C++ QuoKernel by taking out the quo namespace in all
implementation classes. This makes the code more portables, and eliminates
problems with cross-compiling from NT to VxWorks using the GreenHills
compiler.
This changes was pervasive through quo/quo, quo/codegen, and all the C++
qoskets and examples.
[Michael, Sep 5 2001]

- implemented logging in C++ QuoKernel that allows to print out only data
about region changes. Call kernelimpl->setDebug
(quo::QuoKernel::DEBUG_CONTRACT)
to get that level of debugging.
[Michael, Sep 5 2001]

Known limitations:
------------------
- quoRsvpOrb does NOT work on RedHat 7.1 yet. Partha Pal reported segfaults
in rsvp agents on that specific platform.
