Below are the different versions of the RPC library:
-* version 0.1 5/19/2007 \[[@marshal_07_05_19.zip download]\]
+* version 0.1 5/19/2007 \[[@rpc_07_05_19.zip download]\]
* first implementation of the library using futures, making the RPC interface completely
asynchronous (with futures facilitating synchronous behavior).
* call options are deduced from the rpc call, and how the returned call handler is stored (or ignored).
