+Apache Tuscany C++ M1 build (July, 2006)
+===================================
+
+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 SCA C++ and run the samples can be found in the GettingStarted.html file.
+
+
+About Tuscany SCA C++
+=====================
+
+Tuscany SCA C++ provides a runtime implementation for the Service Component
+Architecture 0.9 specification, written in C++ and will currently support C++
+component implementation types. 
+
+It is possible to interoperate with Tuscany SCA Java via the Web Service bindings
+for EntryPoint/ExternalService but restrictions apply. This is not yet a complete
+implementation and known restrictions are described below.
+
+Supported SCA Assembly Model features
+  *  All features are supported unless listed under the known restrictions
+     below. See SCA Assembly Model specification.
+
+Supported language bindings
+  * Component implementations written in C++. See SCA Client and
+    Implementation Model specification.
+  * Component interfaces described by C++ classes. See SCA Client and
+    Implementation Model specification.
+
+Supported external service and entry point bindings
+  * The web service binding is supported. This implementation will support
+    web services which using document literal SOAP bindings conforming to the
+    WS-I basic profile (rpc/encoded is not yet supported).
+
+Known restrictions
+  * Subsystem wiring, entry points and external services are not supported.
+  * Local service interfaces cannot use overloaded operations (the SCA
+    specification limits remote service interfaces to not using overloaded
+	operations).
+  * Each WSDL definition for a web service binding must be in a single WSDL
+    document.
+  * No load time validation of the deployed SCA application (run time validation
+    only).
+  * No metadata API.
+  * A Web Service EntryPoint that is wired (via zero or more components) to a 
+    Web Service ExternalService will fail when attempting to send the final 
+    response to the originating client.

+Thank you for using Tuscany!
