Thanks for your message. We have not started working on the security
service for omniORB. In the medium term, we would like to have at least
the authentication functions in place. However, this is currently at the
bottom of the list of things to do. If anyone is interested in helping out
with the implementation, please drop us a line. 

At the moment, we are working on the support for the Any types, GIOP over
native ATM and making the ORB QoS aware. Anyone interested in CORBA over
ATM?

Regards,

Sai-Lai
