-<h3>Building and Installing TAO</h3>
-
-TAO has been ported and tested Windows NT, Solaris, VxWorks, and
-Linux. I expect that major portions of the release will port easily
-to other platforms that ACE has been ported to. If you can help port
-TAO to other platforms we'd appreciate it. <P>
-
-TAO can be obtained <A HREF="TAO-obtain.html">electronically</A> via
-the WWW and ftp. Besides getting the <A
-HREF="http://siesta.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/TAO-obtain.html">TAO
-release</A> you will need <A
-HREF="http://siesta.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE-obtain.html">ACE</A>.
-You will likely need the most recent <A
-HREF="http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE_wrappers/ACE.tar.gz">beta</a>
-version of ACE because TAO tends to track changes to ACE rather
-closely. <P>
-
-A quick build note for users who have used ACE with other ORBs:
-linking TAO with a version of ACE that must also be linked against
-another ORB vendor's library, e.g., liborbix.so, will produce
-undefined and most likely unpredictable and erroneous results. <P>

-<H3>On Windows NT</H3>

-Before compiling <CODE>TAO_IDL</CODE> on NT, you may need to set the
-environment variable <CODE>CPP_PATH</CODE> to where CL.exe is
-installed on your machine. By default, we set this variable to to
-"C:/Program Files/DevStudio/VC/bin". Your location may vary, however.
-Notice that if you forget to set this variable, you must rebuild
-<CODE>TAO_IDL</CODE> after setting it. <P>
-
-<H4>Visual C++ 5.0</H4>
-
-<P>It works best if TAO is placed in ACE_wrappers so TAO ends up in
-<CODE>ACE_wrappers\TAO</CODE> because the Visual C++ 5.0 Project files
-are set up to work in this configuration. If you move it, then make
-sure you change the project file to look for the include and library
-files in the correct place.</P>
