  2 mike  1.27     -   If it is the case that a reference may only refer to an instance,
  3            	then we must derive new types for representing object paths.
  4            
  5                -   Many CIM operations interfaces are incorrect: GetInstance() for example
  6            	takes a namespace and a CIMReference (which also may contain the 
  7            	namespace). According to the standard, it should take an "InstanceName".

 15            	provided both as an argument and as part of the instance name?
 16            
 17                -   ReferenceNames should return classes not just instances?

 18 mike  1.22 

 19 mike  1.24     -   Remove final const from const methods in non-const CIM element classes.
 20

 22            
 23                -   Resolve constness problems. (get rid or Const classes?)
 24            
 25                -	Change CIMReference to CIMObjectPath?

 41 mike  1.20     -	Implement consistency and constraint checking on classes and instances.
 42            
 43                -   Implement filtering (using includeQualifiers, localOnly, etc.)
 44            

 45 mike  1.18     -	Consider eliminating const CIM element classes.
