The alpha stuff is in the code generation side.  The marshaling didn't
change except for fixes.

Be cautious using jawin where you expect callback and event handling.
Or visual rendering(i.e. JAWT). These features aren't supported that I
can see.
You should not need to compile anything.  And if you get it out of cvs
you only need to run the script for compiling the java side.  The native
dlls are in cvs precompiled.

Not as much as I would like to.  Hopefully this winter I make some
progress.  I wasn't around for the initial marshaling.  I am
experimenting with a new way to marshal.  And event handling and jawt
visual display of visual COM components.  These experiments use little
of the original code and are not ready to reside in cvs.  Having
difficulties with the MS Platform SDK on different Windows versions.
And finding my way thru their documentation.

I would appreciate anything that come about.
