Hi Clebert,

I start to post messages in  harmless general, if the quantity of 
messages will be too high  we will
create a new development list.

I do not undestand what exactly you want to say... we  could use task 
manager of sourceforge,
but I  never used them so I cannot tell.

Ok, I think it should be necessary.
I started doing the simplest implementation, so it is not well designed.

Rename that classes  is a must.

I should have look at the code. If it is  in POA code, that  code is too 
simplicistic now at the  moment  to think to  optimize.

I do not choose ant at  the beginning because ANT is java related so I 
was unsure and  I preferred to wait
for something .net related.
But actual build process it is too poor and we need to change, so  ANT 
will be ok for me.
I remenber to have seen an ant translation in C#  on sourceforge site, 
but I do  not know the progress or  objectives.

The only thing that should  remain is the indipendence from MS Visual 
Studio. I am not using now, and
I want to start. To write  code I  use SharpDevelop. (I  have  MS Visual 
Studio  .net  installed).

Well, here I would like to complete the wstring support and any type 
(version 0.0.5).
In the meantime you can do the modification that you described in this 
mail (GIOPStream over stream, ?bstream renaming, ant build scripts), if 
you agree.
Antonio will upgrade the IDL grammar from 2.0 to 2.4.2 or 2.6.

Then we can start the work of 0.1.0.

I started to write documentation in harmless.xml in docbook; what I see 
more  important at the moment if the chapter 4, that should describe our 
 interpretation of the specifications.
Besides, I would describe all the interfaces contained in the CORBA 
specifications  (i.e. ORB,  POA, POAManager, constants) into the file 
idl/harmless.idl.
