[omniORB] load balancing example

[Andrew Wong]

When I was reading the newsgroups about CORBA and I found people 
mentioning loading balancing with the dynamic property features of 
COS Trading Service and the location forwarding features of POA. 
Some commerical vendors "extend" their Naming service or have their
own CORBA service for loading balancing.

It seems that OmniORB doesn't have these features yet. Therefore, I
am mostly interested on how OmniORB handles loading balancing. As a
beginnner, some coding examples will be most helpful.

Thanks,

Andrew.
