We plan to implement a prototype of a CosTransaction Service spec 1.2
in python based on omniORB 4.0.

We do not have too much experience in coding c++ but we have done it at least.

I have a few questions before we start this project :

- our project needs the CosNotification Service .. are there any plans to make omniNotify 
  work/compile with the upcoming omniORB4 ?? (i posted this on omninotify as well)

- CosTransactions specifies that the TransactionContext is given to the called CorbaObject
  transparently through the use of CORBA::Current. 
  - Is it possible to achieve this with the new omniORB4 version ?
  - do we need to code this (an interceptor ??) in c++ (or anyone is interested to do so :-) ??
  - is the implementation of IIOP capable of handling the TransactionContext requests ??

thanks for your answers
