+The subdirectories in this directory provide a number of complete
+applications that utilize the ACE features.
+
+ . drwho - This provides a "Distributed RWHO (drwho)" utility
+ that gets around certain rwho limitations, adds
+ functionality, and also prints a much prettier listing of
+ who's logged in around a network.
+
+ . Gateway -- Implements a connection-oriented application-level
+ gateway that uses source-based and destination-based routing
+ of messages between peers connected via TCP/IP networks.
+
+ . gperf -- The GNU perfect hash function generator. This
+ has now been integrated into the TAO IDL compiler, where
+ it is used for generating the lookup function for operation
+ names associated with IDL interfaces.
+
+ . JAWS -- This is a high-performance HTTP 1.0 web server
+ written with ACE. It illustrates a number of sophisticated ACE
+ concurrency and event demultiplexing strategies.
+
+ . JAWS2 is an implementation of HTTP/1.0 similar to JAWS. It has
+ no HTTP/1.1 features. It extends JAWS to add a more
+ flexible I/O and concurrency framework utilizing strategies.
+
+ . JAWS3 is a framework that provides a state-machine interface
+ to developing a server, but it does not implement HTTP.
