There has recently been a proposal, started by Gerald Brose I think,
that all the open source ORBs (JacORB, MICO, TAO, omniORB enlisted so
far) support corbaloc:ssliop:..., and then try to get the OMG to
standardise it later. That gets rid of my main objection to supporting
it.

I'll look into adding it soon, unless Bastiaan has already done it?

Cheers,

Duncan.
