+______________________________________________________________________________
+
+These examples have been taken from the book "Advanced CORBA
+Programming with C++" by Michi Henning and Steve Vinoski. Copyright
+1999. Addison-Wesley, Reading, MA. To make the examples work with
+TAO, some minor modifications to the source code have been made, with
+permission from Addision-Wesley, by Mike Moran <mm4@cs.wustl.edu>.
+We've also integrated the examples into the ACE+TAO Makefile scheme.
+Each directory contains a file CHANGES which describes all
+modifications, as well as a README file documenting its use.
+
+The original source distribution can be found at the Addison-Wesley
+homepage:
+
+http://cseng.aw.com/bookdetail.qry?ISBN=0-201-37927-9&ptype=0
+
+The following is the README distibuted with the original code:
+______________________________________________________________________________
+
+
+Each directory contains one of the major code examples of the corresponding
+chapter.
+
+We have not provided Makefiles and a build environment simply because
+there are not enough ORBs with a POA around yet to make this feasible.
+
+You will almost certainly hit minor glitches with include file names.
+
+Another potential problem is the version of the iostream library
+supported by your compiler. The code here uses the old iostream
+library. If your compiler requires use of the new ISO/IEC library, you
+will have to replace occurences of "#include <iostream.h>" with
+"#include <iostream>" and use the std:: qualifier for I/O
+operations. (The easiest way to deal with this is probably to add a
+"using namespace ::std" directive to the code somewhere. (Similar
+comments apply to uses of the fstream and strstream classes.)
+
+It is also likely that you will encounter some compiler
+incompatibilities. If you do and update the source to work for your
+compiler, please drop us a note at corba@awl.com. Over time, we hope
+that with your help, we can turn the code into something that will
+work everywhere.
+
+If you find bugs, we'd appreciate it if you'd let us know.
+
+ Thanks,
+
+ Michi & Steve.
