This is basically what my Bonobo talk at Ottawa covered.

I can put the slides for my talk on my web page if you want to.

Have you read the idl files?  They come with comments on what they
do.  And if you are familiar with the Inside OLE book (which we got
for 4 dollars on Silicon Valley in the section of "we are trying to
get rid of this book" section).  You have a pretty good understanding
of it.

The Bonobo/doc/Bonobo.sgml contains my work-in-progess documentation
for Bonobo.
