	//	Note for storage provider developers who are creating

	//	This is the base class for all storage providers
	//	Specific kinds of Storage Providers should subclass this
	//	and implement these methods. You should avoid initialization
	//	storage provider subclass's constructor; instead, perform 
	//	initialization in your initialize() method.
