The big con for ORBit, short term: % cd /usr/src/gnome/ORBit-0.3.0 % find . -name "*.c" -exec grep "Not yet implemented" {} \; | wc 857 2613 30302 That's 857 items specified in the IDL for ORBit that are currently empty functions. I think long-term, with the financial backing of RedHat, and the key role it plays in the GNOME, I think ORBit will be the premier open-source ORB. -Michael

Can we do the first implemntation using MICO and convert over later, if the need arises? Or are those 857 items not important? Marc G.

I think so. After all that's what GNOME did too.
