ANNOUNCE: Ice 2.0 released

Hi,

we've just released Ice 2.0 with quite a lot of new features:

- new language mappings for Visual Basic and Python (in
addition to C#, C++, Java, and PHP)

- a new light-weight and super-efficient firewall

- a streaming API that allows you to control the encoding and decoding of
objects in arbitrary formats (or the native Ice format)

- dynamic invocation and dispatch interfaces, so you can write generic
clients and server that do not require compile-time type knowledge

- new chapters in the documentation for the new features

- numerous other improvements and bug fixes

See http://www.zeroc.com/vbulletin/showt...=&threadid=987
for more info.

Cheers,

Michi.
