+KitchenSink Code Generation Test
+===============================
+
+This test is for correct code generation, the various
+artifacts compile and link, but there is no executable.
+
+The IDL file in this directory was put together to have
+a wide variety of template-related IDL3+ constructs:
+
+- template module
+- use of template parameters in contained IDL declarations
+- referenced template module usong 'alias' keyword
+- instantiated template module
+
+Currently only the TAO_IDL front end supports IDL3+
+template-related constructs, so this test covers parsing
+and AST building only. As implementation proceeds on
+the corresponding back end support, code generation,
+compiling and linking will also be tested.
