   Implementation Repositories are non-standard things, and the
OMG is unlikely to specify them any time soon. (There may be
something in the new CORBA Component Model that addresses this,
but I haven't gotten into that much detail yet.) The CORBA LifeCycle
Service could potentially be used for implementing one, but the
one I know a bit about (Orbacus', via Michi Henning) works by
launching processes that implement objects and issuing LOCATION_FORWARDs
to them once they are started.
