  We present a definition of an invariant #(M,H), defined for every
finite-dimensional Hopf algebra (or Hopf superalgebra or Hopf object) H and for
every closed, framed 3-manifold M. When H is a quantized universal enveloping
algebra, #(M,H) is closely related to well-known quantum link invariants such
as the HOMFLY polynomial, but it is not a topological quantum field theory.
