+Apache Tuscany SDO C++ M3
+=========================
+
+http://incubator.apache.org/tuscany
+
+Tuscany is an effort undergoing incubation at the Apache Software Foundation
+(ASF), sponsored by the Web Services PMC.
+
+Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review
+indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process
+have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects.
+
+While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or
+stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully
+endorsed by the ASF.
+
+
+Getting Started
+===============
+
+Documentation describing the system requirements and the steps to install
+Tuscany SDO C++ and run the samples can be found in the GettingStarted.html
+file.
+
+
+About Tuscany SDO for C++
+=========================
+
+Tuscany SDO is an implementation of the Service Data Objects for C++ 2.01
+specification found at
+http://www.osoa.org/display/Main/SDO+-+Previously+Published+Specifications
+
+Supported SDO features
+ * All features are supported unless listed under the known restrictions
+ below. See the Service Data Objects for C++ 2.01 specification.
+
+New features in this release
+ * 30-40% performance improvement
+ * Multiple bug fixes and internal enhancements
+
+Known Restrictions
+The implementation adheres closely to the specification, but there are a number
+of features which did not make it into this release. These are documented
+below.
+
+Generic get/set:
+The C++ implementation defines a set of access methods directly appropriate to
+each Type. For example getString(), setString(), getBoolean(), setBoolean().
+There is no generic get() method as there is no common base object to return -
+unlike the java implementation which can return an Object.
+
+Typesafe interface:
+There is no code generation in this version, so there is no interface such that
+a property called "Name" can be accessed via object->getName(). The name must
+be accessed via object->getString("Name");
+
+Change Summary Serialization:
+Change summaries contain creations, deletions and modifications to data graphs.
+The specification indicates that these will be serialized to XML such that
+creations and deletions will become attributes of the change summary element,
+whilst changes become elements within the change summary element. This
+implementation saves all creations, deletions and changes as elements within
+the change summary element.
+
+Change Summary Undo:
+The undo method of a change summary is not implemented.
+
+Read-Only:
+Read-only data elements are not supported by this implementation. Properties
+may be set read-only, but the property may still be modified without an error.
+
+Opposites:
+Opposites are not supported by this implementation.
+
+Date and Time:
+Date support is limited to using a time_t. There are no calendar or duration
+style objects, and no helpers for conversions.
+
+BigDecimal and BigInteger:
+The equivalent of the java BigDecimal and BigInteger objects are not
+implemented.
+
+NLS support:
+Data objects may contain multi-byte data in the form of an SDO string, but
+locale information is not stored with the data. The creation API only allows
+properties and types to have ascii names (taking a char* as the name).
+
+Inheritance:
+Type inheritance is single only.
