It doesn't :-) I got TM4L running under TMAPI /not fully tested yet, but
in general it runs!/. I do use Stefan's Parser and Serializer. I did
have some problems but it turned out that they weren't due to bugs in
tmapi or tmapi utilities classes. 

My concern was whether I am missing the most efficient way of accessing
the 'primary' name of a topic, since this is a very often used operation
...

Thanks to you and Stefan (Lischke) for the help and encouraging!
