Obstructions to Quantization 2

Let $(L,\nabla )$ be a prequantum line bundle over a symplectic manifold $X$, and $S$ its symplectization. Kostant showed that the classical Poisson bracket on $S$ is simply prequantization on $X$. C. Duval and I have taken this a step farther to obtain a quantization of $X$ using a generalized star-product on $S$.
