		<title>Implementing C Adapter for C++</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am currently in the process of implementing a C-based wrapper/adapter  for LStore C++-based CORBA client. I have completed implementing the client-side API and am currently writing a small platform-independent API for managing shared libraries. This will enable C/C++ clients to communicate with the Java LStore metadata server.
