Re: [HACKERS] Re: CORBA again. (was: light dawns: serious bug in FE/BE protocol handling)

Well, I don't mind the idea of using ORBit, since it _is_ smaller. I'm

only thing is to pick a required mapping, and I said (way back then) that
I preferred C since it had substantially better handling of unions and the
like.
