 16           Pegasus is an open source implementation of the manageability environment defined by the DMTF WBEM standards.
 17           
 18           

 19 karl  1.5 <P>This is a working document that contains the interfaces for the Pegasus 
 20           CIM Server implementation.  This is being created by the OpenGroup 
 21           Enterprise Management Program Group.  
 22           
 23           <p>In addition to this documentation, Pegasus has a Users' Guide that 
 24           specifies overview information and how to set up and install Pegasus.  In 
 25           addition to the manual, the README files contain specific information to 
 26           aide you in when working with Pegasus and its documentation.</p>

 28 karl  1.4 <p>Within this document, you will find the following:</p>

 29 karl  1.1 <UL>

 30 karl  1.4 <LI>A definition of the public APIs defined for the current version of Pegasus including the client, CIMOM, and provider APIs.
 31           <LI>Information on the status of these APIs (frozen, experimental, etc.).

 32 karl  1.2 <LI> Usage examples of the APIs with the defintions.

 33 karl  1.1 </UL>
 34           

 35 karl  1.4 <p>The following are interfaces that are frozen with the 2.3 release of Pegasus:

 36 karl  1.5 CONNIE: we will go nuts if we try to do the lists this way.  We need to mark them
 37                   in the classes and methods themselves, not in this list.  In reality
 38                   all interfaces that are not explicitly marked experimental are frozen.
 39                   We should state that.
 40                   Need to reference PEP 57 as the authority for this release.

 41 karl  1.4 
 42           
 43           <p>The following are interfaces that are experimental:

 44 karl  1.5 CONNIE: We might get by with this experimental list but it will change for each
 45                   version of the document.

 46 karl  1.4 
 47           
 48           <p>The following is the complete file hiearchy for this document.

 49 karl  1.1    We have tried to keep all file references in only this one place
 50              to make modification easier.  In the future, please keep the
 51              references here and text in the individual files.
