Thanks, I've added your update to the tree.

Whether you change the omniORB source or not, your obligations are the
same. If you distribute software using omniORB, you _must_ offer
distribute the source for the version of omniORB you are using,
including any modifications you have made to it. You don't have to
disclose the source to your application at all, assuming your
application isn't wrapped up in changes to omniORB.

Cheers,

Duncan.
