[Mono-list] Some news about a CORBA ORB implementation for.Net framework

Forcing the C model that ORBit has into a C# version of CORBA will just
lead to a horrible beast as the result.  You might be able to leverage
some "bits" like the IIOP encoding, but it is doubtful how useful that
really is.

The in-proc features are cool, but it would need things to be
implemented with the ORBit model in mind, and not with a C# mind set. 

Miguel.
