	What they have done is to replace the current desktop management 
scheme with one very similar to the one used by Appleshare (ie. the Desktop
Manager).  This will not only CONSIDERABLY speed up desktop updating but
will also help matters on larger volumes (like CD-ROM's, etc.).
	They have also provided a series of utilities to developers to make
accessing the Desktop Manager files nice and easy.  Developers will now be
able to do things like FAST (REAL FAST!) file searches using the B-Tree Manager,
read AND write file comments, and other nicities...
