Yes, that too.  What I really like about the Remoting bit, is that it
would be possible to reconfigure an existing application without
touching the source code to become a corba client/server.  This would be
done just by changing the .config file that ships with it.

I have not looked too deep into COM-interop, so it is hard to tell, but
on the surface, it would be fantastic to support it.
