1. What's new in DIET 'klair' 2.8.1 ?
------------------------------------------------

	- Improve the automatic omniORB configuration 
	- Improve clients connexion

	- replace snprintf by strncpy where appropriate
	- Improved build system

	- Fedora 17 

* Bug Fix:

	- Fixed compilation on Mac OS X
	- Fixed tests binary locations
	- Fixed ORBMgr bug: bad initialization of ORBMgr::TheMgr in libDIET_SeD
	- Fixed a bug with the initialization of ORBMgr: CorbaCommon_SRCS was included in both the sources for DIET_core and DIET_SeD, thus
	leading to having two ORBs
	- Fixed compilation on AIX
	- Fixed a bug when no configuration file was found:
		boost::lexical_cast<unsigned int> throws an exception when it receives an empty string.
	- Fixed: unlock without lock in DIET_client.cc
	- Fixed: double free in diet_wait_any
	- Fixed: double free in diet_wait_or
	- replace getpid() by uuid to prevent multiple elements to have the same name
	- Fixed: concurrency issue in DAGDA
	- Fixed: DAGDA storage directory creation failure
        - Forwarders now unregister themselves from omniNames when they are shut down properly.
        - Forwarders can be launched after any DIET element
        - To avoid problems when a file managed by DAGDA is modified outside DAGDA, we know compute the files sizes before any transfer.
        - Let CMake manage rpath. Thus, you need to explicitly set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH or DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.

Enjoy
Eddy
