Prior to our release of IA2 to the Linux Foundation Board of Directors 
please review what will hopefully be the final update to IA2 version 1.0.2 
at
    http://www.linux-foundation.org/~ptbrunet/ia2/docs/html/

There should be no effective differences in the binary created from the 
original 1.0.1 version released on 3/26/07.  I say effective because I 
suppose it's possible DLLs won't compare due to some side effect of the 
build tools, but the code should work the same, i.e. clients and servers 
created with either 1.0.1 IDL or 1.0.2 IDL should interoperate because 
there were no changes to the interface names or method signatures and no 
new or removed interfaces or methods.  The updates are primarily 
documentation updates, but there are some new constants and equivalent 
recoding of existing constants into enums and some other minor changes 
which should have no impact on generated code.

If someone could verify the interoperability between 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 code 
that would be great.

The top level directory is at 
    http://www.linuxfoundation.org/~ptbrunet/ia2/
and contains changelog.txt, the merged IDL file, and the zip file 
containing everything.

There were two bugs entered during the review period.  See the following:
    http://bugs.linux-foundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137
    http://bugs.linux-foundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152

Janina, Do you want the approval vote on the Open A11y meeting agenda for 
Aug 19 or Aug 26?
