Hi:

Progress
------

I was able to follow the instructions sent by Craig:

STEP 1
======
Get the JDK. We have been using JDK 1.3 from Sun:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/

STEP 2
======
Get JacORB 1.3.30, precompiled version:
http://www.jacorb.org/download.html

STEP 3
======
Get Remos 2.0:
http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs.cmu.edu/project/cmcl/www/remulac/remos.html
Compile and install it.

STEP 4
======
Go to the QuO release page and boomark it:
http://www.dist-systems.bbn.com/tech/QuO/release/latest/index.html

>From the release page, go to the QuO source packages link:
http://www.dist-systems.bbn.com/tech/QuO/release/latest/src/

Get the following packages:
quoCore.src.tgz
quoRemos.src.tgz
quoRsvporb.src.tgz

We don't need OODTE, so don't get that.

STEP 5
======
>From the QuO release page, follow the instructions for building
the necessary pieces in section 2.


I was able to overcome initial compile problems (thanks to Gary and the
quo_help newsgroup) and also run the bette example (on one host) and
see the Batte Davis Slide Show. This is a good example (along with
bette_rmi) to get an idea of how to use RSS in junction with
applications. I am presntly working on understanding this better.

Issues
----

1. I am still unable to run the bette example across two different
hosts. I think the problem is in the configuration of my hosts. I am
trying to run the example between a redhat 7.1 and redhat 7.0 using the
same build. It was originally compiled on 7.0. Is this a problem?

2. I read through both the User and Reference Guide. It would be a great
help if I could get a code walk through of the bette example that uses
RSS with the Remos Data Feed.

3. Could I get a documentation regarding the relationships between
qoskets, adapters, delegates, contracts etc. in some form of UML
notation so I have a better idea of how they all fit together.

4. It would help to get sample config files for configuring Remos as per
the BBN testbed.

I hope we can discuss these issues tomorrow and fix up a time for the
codewalk through preferably sometime this Fri.

Thanks
Yamuna
