I think they came with a later mail, didn't they?  Anyway, Olivier has
fixed it.

Sorry, I don't get this.  What do you mean `When you import the new
shift, you get the Castor library.'  Do you mean, that one should get
the CASTOR libraries (which then presumably contains the SHIFT library)?
And from where should one `import' the new SHIFT library?  Is it at 

	 http://savannah.cern.ch/projects/castor/

If so, I think you should update `README/INSTALL' to reflect this. 

Thanks.

BTW, I think a `Savannah'-like page for all CERN based software is an
excellent idea.  It gives a one-point access to all relavent stuff.
Just too bad that not all projects really use the facility well, use
`weird' licenses, and so on.  Also, it could create the kin of `synergy'
that has really helped the FLOSS community a lot.

What about this issue?  

I think the resolution will be to create the library `libOIV' and
generate dictionaries for the needed classes (I guess it's only
`TViewerOIV' that really needs a dictionary). 

Yours,
