<p align="center"><b><font size="4">OpenPegasus External
Interface Definition</font></b>
</p>
<hr>
<p><b>Abstract: </b>This document provides THE list of the OpenPegasus
interfaces that are considered external and therefore "frozen" with
this release. Unless an exception is explicitly approved by
the Steering Committee all subsequent releases of Pegasus MUST
continue to support these interfaces. Interfaces not explicitly listed
in this document, should be considered as internal and
subject to change.</p>
<hr>
<h2><font color="#000000">Definition of the Problem</font></h2>
<p>With each release, as new features mature and gain Community acceptance and
old features age and lose value, the OpenPegasus External Interface
Definition needs to be updated. The purpose of this document is to
document approved changes (i.e., additions, modifications or deprecations) to
the OpenPegasus External Interface Definition.</p>
<p><b>Note: </b>Support for forward-compatibility is a fundamental design
principle for the OpenPegasus project. As a Community, our
goal is for well-behaved OpenPegasus Providers or Clients, using only the
externally defined OpenPegasus interface, to continue to work with a minor
version upgrade of OpenPegasus. EXPERIMENTAL interfaces are not
considered part of the OpenPegasus External Interface Definition.
Applications using either EXPERIMENTAL or internal interfaces should
have no expectation of working in the next release.</p>
<p><b>Note: </b> Although the content of the OpenPegasus SDK is strongly
influenced by the OpenPegasus External Interface Definition, not all
APIs included in the SDK are part of the External Interface Definition.
In addition, not all External Interfaces are included in the SDK.</p>
